Continuous Media Loading

Continuous media mounts inside the printer in the same manner as roll me-
dia. For proper printer operation, a label length instruction must be included
in the label format sent to the printer.

Cutter Mode Media Loading

(Cutter Option Required)

To ensure proper media loading, follow the directions for the Tear-Off
Mode with the exception that the media must also be routed through the
Cutter Module as shown in Figures 2 and 3.

Close the Printhead Open Lever. The printer will automatically feed out and
cut one label when the printer is powered on. Turn to “Transmissive Media
Sensor Position Adjustment” on page 15.

Rewind Mode Media Loading

(Rewind Option Required)

NOTE: For best results, install the printer on a level surface. This is

especially helpful with wider printers using wide media. If the
surface is not level, the media may “telescope” off of the Rewind
Spindle, causing unsatisfactory results.

Rewind Mode for Printers Without the Cutter Option

1. Remove the Media Rewind Plate from its storage location in front of

the print mechanism inside the media compartment.

2. Invert the Rewind Plate so that the lip on the attached Hook Plate points

down.

3. Insert the Hook Plate lip a short distance (½") into the lower opening in

the Side Plate.
