To install the label roll on the roll retainer:
1 Turn the green locking ring (1) counterclockwise to
the unlocked ( ) position.
2 Remove the margin stop (2).
3 On the roll retainer (3), load the new label roll so
that it feeds counterclockwise with the label side up.

(3).
5 While firmly pushing the margin stop against the
label roll (4), turn the green locking ring (1) clockwise
to the locked ( ) position.
IMPORTANT To ensure that the roll feeds properly
and the label presentation is repeatable, the margin
stop must be firmly in place against the label roll.
Step 2. Feeding the label strip under the printhead

1 Ensure that the printhead lever (5) is in the up
position (turned counterclockwise), lifting the
printhead.
2 Slide the red guide ring (8) to the end of the axis bar.

the label sensor (7) so that the label strip exits the
print unit between the printhead and the print roller
(6).

outer edge of the label strip.
Step 3. Securing the label strip to the rewinder

assist roller (10) toward the rewinder (11).

rewinder (11), and turn the green knob
counterclockwise until it stops. The rewinder
is fully expanded, gripping the label strip firmly.
The inside edge of the label strip should be flush
against the printer.
5 Turn the rewinder (11) counterclockwise to tighten
the label strip.
6 Push up on the pinch- roller lever (9) to position the
pinch roller into position on the rewind assist roller.

ribbon.
After you finish loading new ribbon and labels
Use Microplate Labeler Diagnostics to run a print-and-
apply test. Verify that the labels print correctly and the
applicator head can pick up the labels from the printer.
Optionally, you can reset the label counter. For details,
see the G5404B Microplate Labeler User Guide.
