Clearing a Label Jam in the Front Media Guide
1. Gently remove the label media from under the front guide by pulling up the label media near the ink carriage.
CAUTION: Avoid peeling up a label in the media path. You might have to pull the media forward through the cutter to avoid peeling a label. If a label is peeled up in the media path, do not press the adhesive side of the label against the sheet metal guides.
2. Use scissors to cut the liner between two labels by the ink carriage to allow you to remove the jammed label media.
If required, press the Load button to advance the label media.
NOTE: Scissors are recommended for cutting the liner so that the label media will have a straight edge. The straight edge will make loading the label media easier.
28 Safe Label System Reference Guide
3. Gently remove the jammed portion of the label media.
4. Review the strip of labels. Make sure that you can account for all of the labels and that no labels are stuck in the front media guide. Discard the damaged label media.

6. Press the Unload button to reverse any portion of the label media that is still in the media path.
7. Inspect the label media. Use scissors to cut off any damaged labels.
8. Close the front cover, load the label media, and close the rear cover.
