9.Bring the label strip over the guide roller and across the platen roller to the left of the strip that is already around the roller. Place the end of the strip into the auxiliary feed and feed it through using the advance knob (G). Press the advance knob toward the printer to engage the advance shaft. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to feed the label strip. Continue feeding the label strip until it appears coming out of the cutter.

10.Insert the label strip into both sides of the supply guide. Adjust the supply guide by moving the right guide in or out, depending on the stock width. The label strip should be in the guide slots on the inner edges of the strip and under the sensor at the back right of the guide. Adjust the supply guide so that it just matches the width of the inner strip. The outer strip will be slightly loose.

11.Push the black deflector tab down. Release the printhead latch, but do not lock the printhead assembly down. Gently roll the supply roll back to tighten the label strip. Continue until the label strip is snug around the turn bar. Lock the printhead down.

Note: If the printer is not used for an extended period, the label stock may take a “set” where it goes around the turnbar. After a period of not printing, it is recommended that you feed the material through the printer until the “set” material has gone through the knife. This will reduce the possibility of jamming.
