Tear-Off Operation

1Open the printer's top cover by pressing the release buttons on both sides and folding the cover upwards/rearwards.

2Pull up the spindle and remove possible remaining media or empty label roll core.

3Place the spindle into the core of a fresh media roll. Rotate the spindle according to the inner diameter of the media roll core (see markings on the spindle).

4Wind the green edge guide wheel towards the front of the printer so you can fit the media roll between the guides.

5Place the media roll and spindle in the media compartment and snap the spindle into the slots on either side.

6Wind the green edge guide wheel towards the rear of the printer so the rear edge guides just touch the roll without actually breaking its rotation.
