CHANGE LABELS
Load labels
(1) Open the Print head with the lifting handle.
(2) Remove hood.
(3) Open the Peel roller.
(4) Install a new roll of labels as shown in the threading diagrams, and
insert the band of labels under the Print head (Inside rolled or outside
rolled labels).
Note: Study the threading diagram and ensure that the labels go the
correct way over the ‘dancing arm’ on the reel holder. A correct
path is important to get the right tension in the label web. There
must always be suitable tension in the label web to prevent it from
moving sideways on the platen roller.
(5) Drag the backing paper to the backing paper re-winder.
.
(6) The backing paper re-winder has a locking mechanism for the
backing paper. Put the backing paper into the slot and close it with
the lever.
Note: Make sure that the slot is properly closed. If not, the re-winder will
collapse and it will be difficult to remove the backing paper from
the re-winder.
(7) Close the Print head fully, put back the Hood and close the Peel roller.
(8) Position the label.
