3.If necessary, remove the supply roll and ribbon.

4.Remove the jammed supply and reload the supply roll.

5.Close the printhead assembly and turn on the printer.

6.Press Feed to position the supply under the printhead.

Clearing a Knife Jam

If tags are jammed in the knife, the printer displays 760 on the LED. To clear a knife jam, you might have to disconnect the stacker from the knife.

1.Turn the printer off.

2.You can see the tag path in the knife by looking through the slot on the top of the knife. Clear the tag path by using a tool, such as a screwdriver or needle-nose pliers, to pull the jammed tags out of the knife.

CAUTION

DO NOT PLACE YOUR FINGERS NEAR THE KNIFE’S BLADE. DO NOT USE

EXCESSIVE FORCE TO REMOVE TAGS BECAUSE

DAMAGE TO THE KNIFE MAY OCCUR.
