Important Safety Instructions
This unit has been carefully designed to provide years of safe, reliable performance. As with
all electrical equipment, however, there are some basic precautions that you should follow
to avoid personal injury or printer damage:
• Before using the printer, carefully read all the installation and operating instructions.
• Observe all warning instruction labels on the printer.
• Install the printer on a flat, firm surface.
• Do not place the printer on or near a heat source.
• To protect your printer from overheating, make sure no openings on the printer are
blocked.
• Never insert anything into the ventilation slots and openings of the printer.
• Do not use the printer near water or spill liquid into it.
• Ensure that the AC power source matches the ratings listed for the printer. (If
unsure, check with your dealer or local utility provider.)
• Do not walk on the AC power cord. If the AC power cord becomes damaged or
frayed, replace it immediately.
• If the printer ever needs repair, consult only qualified, trained service personnel. No
user-serviceable parts are inside; do not remove the cover.
The exclamation point within an equilateral tr iangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and maintenance instructions in

Setting up the Printer
3.1 Installation
Interface and connect power to the printer:
A. Place the printer on a firm, level surface.
B. Turn OFF the Host Computer then, depending upon your system, connect an appropriate
interface cable from the host to the printer; see Section 3.1.1.
C. Turn ON the Host Computer.
D. Ensure that the printer’s Power On/Off Switch is in the OFF position. Connect the AC
Power Cord to the AC Power Connector, and then plug the AC Power Cord into a properly
grounded AC Outlet.
Note: When interfacing, ensure AC power has been turned OFF, and always apply
power to the Host before the Printer.
I-Class 9
3.1.1 Communications
Following power-up (or after a period of inactivity), interface port selection occurs
automatically upon detection of valid data. If the incoming (received) data flow stops and
the Host Timeout Value (see Section 4.2.6) is exceeded, partially received formats will be
ignored and the port detection process repeated.
Notes: 1) To change an active port immediately, cycle the power OFF and ON.
2) For alternate data processing options, see SYSTEM SETTINGS / INPUT
MODE - Section 4.2.5.
DMXNetII Network Interface Card / DMXrfNetII Wireless Network Interface Card
The optional network interface has several menu-selectable modes; see Section 4.2.6 or
refer to the manual provided with the option.
Parallel Port
The parallel interface has two menu-selectable modes of operation:
• Unidirectional mode is forward channel communication and requires a Centronics
cable with a 36 pin male connector.
• Bidirectional mode is IEEE 1284 Compliant, using forward and reverse channel
communications and requires an IEEE 1284 cable with a Centronics
connector.
Serial Port
The serial interface supports RS-232C, and if equipped optional RS-422 communications.
The serial interface has menu-selectable settings that must match the host computer’s
settings; see Section 4.2.6. In addition to the port settings, serial c able wirin g must
have specific pin connections for proper data flow; see Section 7.3.
USB Interface Card
The optional USB Port is plug and play interface, operating transparently and without menuselectable settings or modes.
WARNING
The USB Port is a device-end only connection. Never connect a keyboard,
mouse, modem, etc. to this port; damage can result.

3.4 Ribbon Loading
The Thermal Transfer Option type determines the applicable ribbon type [Coating Side In
(CSI) or Coating Side Out (CSO)]. Depending upon the option type, load ribbon as follows:
A. Unlock the Printhead Latch and raise the Printhead Assembly. Following the Directional
Arrows on the Thermal Transfer Option, orient the Ribbon Roll accordingly and then slide
it completely onto the Ribbon Supply Hub.
B. Route the ribbon under the Ribbon Idler and Printhead Assembly then up and around the
Ribbon Take-Up Hub. Wind the ribbon several times (in a clockwise direction) around the
Ribbon Take-Up Hub to secure it.

Removing Used Ribbon
When the Ribbon Roll is depleted, pull the empty core from the Ribbon Supply Hub. Grasp
the used roll on Ribbon Take-Up Hub then pull and squeeze to remove the spent ribbon.
(To remove partially depleted rolls, cut the ribbon then remove the roll and discard any
used ribbon as described above.)
3.5 Quick Calibration
The printer is calibrated to sense a wide range of media. Calibration fine-tunes these
settings for your die-cut, notched, or reflective application. (Not required for continuous
media.)
Perform this calibration during initial setup or after changing your media type:
• Ensure that media is loaded and that the Media Sensor is adjusted. Then, with the
printer idle, press and hold the FEED Key. Allow at least one complete label to advan c e
then release the key.
Upon successful completion, CALIBRATION COMPLETED and then READY will be
displayed.
Notes:
• If UNCALIBRATED is displayed, see Section 5.2.
• If the printer displays CANNOT CALIBRATE or stops feeding mid-label, press and hold
the FEED Key until two (or more) labels are advanced before releasing the key. If this
method also fails, see Section 5.2.
• WARNING LOW BACKING may appear if using notched media, or media with a
transparent liner; however, calibration was successful.
• Media containing large gaps may require a change in the PAPER OUT DISTANCE; see
Section 4.2.2.
