Changing Labels and Printer Care
User Guide 3-3
Off Line and On Line Mode
Pressing and releasing the power button toggles the
printer between off line and on line mode. An amber status
light indicates that the printer is off line. There is no
communication with the computer when the printer is off
line.
This feature is a handy way to stop printing so you don’t
waste labels while you delete labels from the print queue.
Changing a Label Roll
This procedure describes how to remove and replace label
rolls.
■
You can load a different type of label at any time — you
don’t have to wait until all of the labels have been used.
■
When you run out of labels, the green status light on the
front of the SLP flashes. If printing is in process, a mes-
sage appears telling you that the printer is out of labels.
Removing the Old Roll
CAUTION: DO NOT pull on the labels to remove them
from the printer. This may cause labels to get stuck
inside the printer.
1 Tear off any printed labels. If labels aren’t torn off, they
may get jammed when you perform step 2.
2 Press and hold the form feed button. The labels will
reverse out of the SLP.
Loading the New Roll
Prepare the new label roll and load the labels as described
in “Loading a Roll of Labels” on page 2-7.
