LabelWriter Printer Features

Your LabelWriter printer is a direct thermal printer and does not use ink or toner. Instead, the printer uses heat from a thermal print head to print on specially treated labels. Labels are the only supplies you will ever need to buy.

The form-feed button on the front of the printer advances a single label. The label eject button is used to remove labels from the printer when changing rolls.

The LED status light visually shows the current state of the printer:

•Solid blue - power is on and the printer is ready.

•Flashing blue - labels are not loaded properly or label spool is empty.
