b.Press ON LINE/PAUSE to enable printing.
c.Send a sample test print file from the host, or run the internal diagnostic test file.
note
It may be necessary to feed several labels before proper alignment of the media occurs.
d.If the print quality is acceptable, go on to step 12.
e.Otherwise, press ON LINE/PAUSE again to place the printer in the off line mode.
note
Although the head leveling knob can be adjusted during printing, it is recommended that this adjustment be done while the printer is paused.
