9. Release the lower media guide and adjust the edge guide (by loosening it and
sliding it) to position the media firmly against the inside wall of the printer.
10. Adjust the label gap sensor position if necessary. For help, see “Adjusting the Label
Gap Sensor” in Chapter 5.
11. If you are using thermal transfer media, you need to load ribbon. Follow the
instructions for “Loading Thermal Transfer Ribbon” later in this chapter before you
finish performing this procedure.
12. Lower the printhead by rotating the head lift lever counterclockwise until it locks.
13. If you are loading continuous media or mark label stock, use PrintSet, your third-
party software or the printer command set to tell the printer what kind of media you
are using.
14. Press the Feed/Pause button to advance several inches of media through the printer
and out the label opening in the front cover. The yellow Empty/Pause LED goes
out.
Note:
If the yellow Empty/Pause LED does not go out, reload the media and try again.
Note:
In the future, you may want to refer to label located on the inside of the media
cover with directions for loading media it when loading media.
