Media Cautions & Tips

1) Always use high quality, approved labels and tags. Approved supplies

can be ordered from your dealer. For the name of a dealer in your area, call

Customer Service.

2) If poor quality, adhesive backed labels are used, that DO NOT lay flat on

the backing liner, the exposed edges may stick to the label guides and

rollers inside the printer, causing the label to peel off from the liner and

jam the printer.

3) DO NOT use non-approved transfer ribbon. Permanent damage to the

print head may result if a non-approved ribbon is used. Non-approved

ribbons maybe wound incorrectly for the printer or contain chemicals that

may damage the print head.

4) IMPORTANT - If a transfer ribbon is installed incorrectly by the

operator, damage to the print head may result.

5) DO NOT use a ribbon when printing with direct thermal media.

Media Reload Tip

If you should run out of labels or ribbon while printing, DO NOT turn the

power switch OFF (0) while reloading or data loss may occur. The printer

will automatically resume printing when a new label or ribbon roll is

loaded.

Print Mode Control

The printer is reconfigured for direct thermal (or thermal transfer) printing

with the “O” command for the TLP thermal transfer printer. See the EPL2

programmer's manual for details.

Print Quality Tip

Print density (darkness) is affected by the heat energy (density setting)

applied and by the print speed. Changing both Print Speed and Density

may be required to achieve the desired results.
