Support Tips To Set Up The Thermal Transfer Clothing Label Printer

Install the unused roll of resin ribbon on the white gear of the printer

Install the dispense core on the green gear inside the printer

Support Tip: Place the dispense core (the small roll) on the green gear.

The dull side of the printer ribbon should be visible

Support Tip #1: Here is how the Resin Ribbon should look when correctly installed (no blue plastic should be showing). Make sure the ribbon winds up clockwise over the top of the core. To wind up the ribbon, turn the green gear clockwise.

Support Tip #2: There is a dull and shiny side to the ribbon. The dull side should be showing when the ribbon is installed.

Support Tip #3: Make sure the unused ribbon is unrolling from the bottom of the roll and not touching the black lever below it.

Press the unlock button to easily install the Clothing Labels within the guides

Support Tip: Install the Heat Seal Clothing Labels in the printer using the unlock button on the right-side bracket. The two brackets will move in unison to squeeze the roll of labels in the center of the printer.

The rolls of Clothing Labels should unwind from the bottom

Support Tip : Make sure the Heat Seal Labels unroll from the bottom of the roll. This will ensure proper tracking and printing.

The printer sensor should be below the left side notch of the labels

Support Tip: The sensor arrow on the printer should line up with the left-side notches of the Clothing Labels. This ensures proper label tracking. The sensor is factory pre-set. If the sensor is moved, the printer will display a “Check Media" error on its LCD screen, and restrict printing.

The sensor shines light when printing and records light levels. The light levels are different when the notches pass over the sensor. Because the notches are evenly spaced, the printer can determine the label size and when to print.
