Media Cautions & Tips
1)Always use high quality Eltron approved labels and tags. Eltron approved supplies can be ordered from your ELTRON dealer. For the name of a dealer in your area, call Eltron Customer Service at one of the numbers listed on the back page of this manual.
2)If poor quality, adhesive backed labels are used, that DO NOT lay flat on the backing liner, the exposed edges may stick to the label guides and rollers inside the printer, causing the label to peel off from the liner and jam the printer.
3)DO NOT use
4)IMPORTANT - If a transfer ribbon is installed incorrectly by the operator, damage to the print head may result.
5)DO NOT use a ribbon when printing with direct thermal media.
Media Reload Tip
If you should run out of labels or ribbon while printing, DO NOT turn the power switch OFF (0) while reloading or data loss may occur. The printer will automatically resume printing when a new label or ribbon roll is loaded.
Print Mode Control (TLP2684)
The printer is reconfigured for direct thermal (or thermal transfer) printing with the “O” command for the Strata TLP thermal transfer printer. See the EPL2 programmer's manual for details.
Print Quality Tip
Print density (darkness) is affected by the heat energy (density setting) applied and by the print speed. Changing both Print Speed and Density may be required to achieve the desired results.
