1. Refer to Figure 4. Raise the media access door by lifting at the
notch until it unhooks from the top cover.
2. Refer to Figure 5. Swing the media access door open to ex-
pose the media compartment.
3. Pivot the top cover to reveal the printhead.
4. Lift the printhead until you feel it “lock” into place. Use caution
not to force the printhead past this position!
WARNING: NEVER touch the thermal print elements on
the underside of the printhead. Under certain condi-
tions, they can be very hot! Also, dirt or moisture from
your hands can damage the prlnthead!
5. Refer to Figures 5 and 6. Remove approximately 6" (152.4 mm)
of labels from the media roll. Then, thread the media into the
printer until it extends approximately 1" (25.4 mm) past the
printhead.
6. Separate and hold open the media hangers.
7. Place the media roll onto the media hangers, making sure it is
tightly wound.

position. Ensure that the media is threaded under both media
guides. 9. The tear bar should not be installed in the printer. If it
is, gently lift the tab on the bar to get it over the protrusion on
the door (reverse the procedure shown in Figure 7). Then, pull
the bar out of the printer.
