Getting Started

Loading Roll Media

Loading Roll Media

When you load media, you must place the roll on the media hangers and then adjust the media guides.

You must use the correct media for the type of printing you require. When printing without a ribbon, you must use direct thermal media. When using ribbon, you must use thermal transfer media. The printer's ribbon sensor detects motion of the supply spindle.

Adjusting the Roll Holders

Check the core of the media roll and adjust the holders if necessary.

For a narrow core, lift the adjusters up.

For a wide core, press the adjusters down.
