LOADING FANFOLD PAPER
Fan-folded media is fed inward from the rear, via the rear housing cover (highlighted in yellow below), but is
stacked as opposed to suspended. Ribbon can be wound in or wound out.
1. Place the fanfold media behind the printer with the printing
surface up.
2. Carefully pull up the Fanfold-label Loading Slot from the
back of the Top Cover.
3. Open the Top Cover by pressing on the cover release latch
located on the right-hand side of the printer. This releases
the cover and allows it to swing upward on the rear-
mounted hinges.
4. With the Top Cover in the upright position, press the Paper
Guide Release while adjusting the Paper Guides until they
allow the media to fit between them. A millimeter scale is
molded into the case to provide a guide when making the
adjustment. The Paper Guides are center-justified and
interact with each other so that each moves an equal dis-
tance apart from each other.
5. Route the label material through the Sensor Assembly and
over the Platen. See figure 3-4 for the label route.
6. Close the Top Cover.
7. After loading the label media, it is
recommended that you run a Test Print to
make sure the labels are correctly loaded
and printed.
