Quick Installation Guide 1. Printer Installation Place this printer on a flat stable surface and make sure the power switch is turned off. 1. Connect the printer to the host computer with a Parallel Centronics, Serial RS-232C or USB cable. 2. Plug the power cord into the power jack connector at the rear of the printer, then plug the power cord into a properly grounded outlet (refer to figure 2). 2. Loading the Ribbon Note: The printer automatically detects if a ribbon is installed after power on and will switch to thermal transfer or direct thermal printing mode. If the printer does not detect a ribbon (direct thermal mode), the motor that drives the ribbon spindles will be turned off. Make sure both the ribbon access window and the printer top cover are closed when powering the printer up. 1. Push down on the ribbon access window to unlock and open the cover (refer to figure 3). 2. Place a paper core on a ribbon rewind spindle. 3. Mount the ribbon rewind paper core on the front hubs. 4. Install a ribbon on the ribbon supply spindle. 5. Mount the ribbon supply spindle on the rear hubs (refer to figure 4). 6. Pull the ribbon from the ribbon supply spindle and cross the print head, stick the ribbon onto the Ribbon Rewind Paper Core (refer to figure 5). 7. Attach the ribbon leader to the ribbon rewind paper core. 8. Rotate the ribbon rewind paper core until the ribbon leader is thoroughly, firmly encompassed by the black section of the ribbon. 9. Close the ribbon access window. 3. Loading the Label 1. Insert a 1” label spindle into a paper roll ( * If your paper core is 1 inch, remove the 1.5” core adapter from the fixed tab). 2. Open the printer’s top cover by releasing the green Top cover open levers located on each side of the printer and lifting the top cover. A Top Cover support at the rear of the printer will hold the printer top cover open. 3. Place a roll of paper onto the center of the paper roll mount (refer to figure 7). 4. Feed the paper, printing side face up, through the Teflon bar and the paper guide and pass over the platen. 5. Adjust the green center-biased paper guides in or out so they are slightly touch the edges of the label backing. 6. To close the printer top cover, lift the cover slightly and pull the bottom of the Top Cover support forward toward the front of the printer. Close the printer top cover slowly and make sure the cover locks latch securely. Note: failure to securely close and lock the cover will result in poor print quality.
