CAUTION!
The printhead can be damaged if handled improperly!
⇒Do not touch the bottom of the printhead with your fingers or sharp objects.
⇒Ensure that the labels are clean.
⇒Ensure smooth label surfaces. Raw labels are like emery and reduce the service life of the printhead.
⇒Print at the lowest possible printhead temperature.
7.1Synchronization
The printer is ready for operation when all connections have been made, the labels and, if necessary the transfer ribbon, have been loaded and the printhead is locked. For details on printer configuration, see the “Configuration Instructions“.
After loading the label medium, synchronization is necessary. During synchronization, the printer auto- matically determines the length of the loaded labels and sets label advancement accordingly.
1.Press the feed button to start synchronization.
2.Remove empty labels after synchronization.
The printer is synchronized with the loaded label medium.
Synchronization is not necessary if the printhead was not opened between different print jobs, even if the printer was switched off.

7.4Internal rewinding
