2.7 Loading the Media
Warning!
• Do not let any loose clothing or other objects fall in the
printer when printing as they can become tangled up
and cause injury or damage to the printer.
• The print head can become very hot after use. Use
caution when working with it or loading labels.
• When engaging the print head be careful not to lock
clothing or loose objects in it.
Notes:
• When the print head lever is set in the up position the print head is up.
• The print head must be locked down to allow printing.
 There are two levels that the print head lever can be set to. This
allows for the adjustment of the print quality.
