thickness indicator. Always start with the indicator all the way

of the printer, especially forms that do not bend easily or tear apart

sheet. The procedures for loading labels are the same as those for loading

you are ready to remove labels from the printer, tear them off at
aperforation that has not yet entered the printer. Then, press the Form
Feed button to eject any labels remaining in the printer.
