Getting Started

1.10 Power-up Configuration and Self-Test

With the printer off, load the die-cut media (the media must be at least 4 inches wide), and ribbon (if printing in thermal-transfer). Press and hold the feed button and turn the printer on, (the power LED should be ‘on’), continue holding the feed button until the media begins to move then release it. The printer will automatically detect if a ribbon has been installed and will then print two test labels.

Note: After performing a power-up and self-test, the printer will be in the 'character dump mode'. Turn the printer ‘off’ for approximately 25 seconds, then back ‘on’ to restore normal operation. The printer must remain ‘off’ for 25 seconds in order for the main board to properly reboot.

The first label printed will be the configuration label, which lists the printer's configuration and status. Note that this configuration label shown below was printed from a printer that had the time/date option installed.
