Dymo LM200 manual Introduction, Warranty Registration, Power Supply, Changing the cassette

Introduction

The Dymo LabelManager LM200 enables you to create a wide variety of high quality self-adhesive labels of up to 90 characters.

The LabelManager uses 6mm (1/4"), 9mm (3/8"), 12mm (1/2") or 19mm (3/4") wide tape cassettes in a number of label colours. Labels are back slit for easy removal from the backing tape. Text can be printed horizontally or vertically in a variety of sizes and styles and can be left- justified, right-justified or centred on the label.

Warranty Registration

Please complete the warranty registration card and return it to the relevant customer service address, within seven days– see the warranty booklet for details.

Power Supply

BATTERIES

•With the Labelmaker positioned as shown in fig A➊ on

page 2, open the machine by hinging down the keyboard. Apply pressure to point A➋ of the battery/ tape compartment cover to release the catch, then hinge down the cover.

•Insert six size AA alkaline or re-chargeable Nickel-

cadmium batteries, observing the polarity markings A➌, and close the cover.

•Remove batteries if the LabelManager is to be unused for some time.

AC ADAPTOR (optional)

•Connect the AC adaptor to socket B➊. Inserting the adaptor plug disconnects the supply from the batteries.

•Unplug the AC adaptor from the LabelManager before disconnecting the mains power to the adaptor, otherwise last label memory settings may be lost (see also ON/OFF).

Changing the cassette

•Hold as shown, then lift cassette C➊ straight up and out.

•Ensure tape and ribbon C➋ are taut across mouth of

cassette and tape passes between guideposts before installing as shown. If necessary, turn spool C➌ clockwise to tighten ribbon.

•Check that cassette switch D➊ is set for the cassette type

– see page 2. A notch in the cassette will fit over the switch when it is set correctly.

•Insert cassette with tape and ribbon positioned as shown between print head D➋ and pinch rollerD➌.

•Push firmly D❹ until cassette clicks into place. Ensure tape and ribbon are positioned correctly.

•Close the compartment cover.

Creating your first label GB

You will no doubt be anxious to see what your

new LabelManager LM200 can do. Before we go on to explore the many advanced features of the LM200, follow these simple steps to create your first label:

1.Fit the batteries, or connect the AC adaptor, plug in and switch on at the wall socket - see ‘Power Supply’.

2.Open the battery/cassette compartment cover and install a tape cassette – see page 2 and ‘Changing the Cassette’. Check that the cassette is fitted correctly.

3.Close the cover, then press to switch the power on. The welcome message ‘DYMO’ will appear, and then the display should look like this:

Cursor flashing

4.Use the keyboard to type in your full name.

Each character you enter will appear on the display, for example:

1

DYMO

•For an UPPER CASE character, press and hold down

followed by the character required.

• Press CAPS for all subsequent characters in UPPER CASE.

•Press the space bar once for the space between each name.

If you make a mistake, press DEL to delete the error, then type in the correction.

5.When you have finished, press PRINT . A label will be printed and will emerge from the slot in the top right hand side of the machine. Wait until the mechanism has stopped, then press the cutter lever E to cut off the label and remove it from the machine.

You should now have a high quality printed name label — don’t waste it! If this is your personal machine, why not fix the label to the underside to identify its owner? You have just found the first of many uses for your DYMO labels.
