WARNING!
1.Do not touch any moving parts. To reduce the risk of fingers, jewellery, clothing, etc., being drawn into the moving parts, be sure to load the media once the printer has stopped moving completely.
2.The Print Head becomes hot immediately after printing. Allow it to cool before loading the media.
3.To avoid injury, be careful not to trap your fingers while opening or closing the cover.
The following procedure shows the steps to properly load the media into the printer so that it feeds straight and true through the printer.
Use the same procedure when replacing the media, also. The printer prints both labels and tags.
