2.3 LOADING LABELS
This printer is designed to print on roll paper supplied via a separate label supply stand.
The printing mechanism can be set to detect the I-mark on the paper to feed each label correctly.
Note:
For optimal print performance and durability, please use SATO-certified label and ribbon
supplies on this printer. Using supplies not tested and approved for use by SATO can result in
unnecessary wear and damage to vital parts of the printer, and may void the warranty.
Roll Paper Characteristics
CAUTION
If your labels are less than the full width of the print head, the outside edge will eventually wear out
a small portion of the print head, resulting in an area that will not print. Special care must be taken if
you plan to use multiple widths of labels, since the damaged portion of the print head caused from
edge wear on a more narrow label may affect the printing on a wider label. We suggest you plan your
print formats carefully to avoid using the area of possible damage on the print head when using a
wider label. The small area of damage will have no effect on printing with the undamaged part of the
print head.
Damage from a label edge is physical damage and is unavoidable. It is not covered by warranty. It is
possible to delay such damage by always ensuring that the ribbon used is wider than the label stock.
This will help to protect the print head from label edge damage.
