Getting to Know the Label Maker
Become familiar with the location of the feature and
function keys on your label maker. Refer to Figure 1. The
following sections describe each feature in detail.
Power
The button turns the power on and off. After ten
minutes of inactivity, the power is switched off
automatically. When the printer turns off, the last label
created is remembered and displayed when the power is
turned back on. The previously selected style settings are
also restored.
LCD Display
The display can show four lines of text at a time. The
number of characters displayed on each line will vary due to
proportional spacing.
With DYMO’s exclusive graphical display, most of the
formatting you add is visible instantly.
Feature indicators along the top and right of the LCD
display appear black to let you know when a feature
is selected.

Mirror, Vertical, Alignment, and Label Length
