Select the Printhead Height
The printhead height setting is found on the Job Attribute tab of the printer driver. Most media
will use the lowest value of Auto. Try the Auto printhead height setting first. If you see ink
smudges or smears on the printed image, try one of the higher printhead settings. If you still
see ink smears with a setting of high, create a custom printhead height to use. See the section
on Printhead height.
Loading Media into the printer
Once the driver settings are in place you are ready to print. Load the media into the printer. If
the guides need to be adjusted do the following.
- Loosen the lock nut on the right media guide.
- Slide the guides into place to fit the media. Make sure the media slides in and out of the
guides.
- Tighten the lock nut to lock the guides into place.
- Load the media by sliding it into the guides until it touches the printer wheels.
- The media will trigger the auto-load sensor and will be pulled into place
If the media load fails, gently pull the media form the printer and reload.
Making a Sample print
Make a sample print of your label on your media. You probably need to print 2-4 labels so you
can verify placement and see the media exit the printer. The table provides a summary of
adjustment you might need.
