Printing a Test Label

To print test labels:

NOTE: Do not print a test label on the 612 printer.

Press Feed and Pause simultaneously. Hold for one second and release. Labels similar to these print:

The first label shows the printer’s configuration by packer (A – G). The second label shows the model number, software version, stock count, voltage, print contrast, printhead resistance, number of bad dots, installed options, and DIP switch settings.

If test labels do not print, press Feed and try again. If that does not solve the problem, call Technical Support.
