Adjusting Space on Label Ends
DYMO 1570
For more blank spaces before and after messages: Turn the tape feeder (B) .
For less blank spaces: Turn the tape feeder (B) in reverse, emboss the message, turn feeder
forward, and cut.
To center a message: Advance completed label 3 spaces (5 space for 1530 Office Mate I)
Squeeze tape cutter.
Troubleshooting
Label shows letters instead of blank space: Squeeze handle half way until you hear a click,
then release.
Letters too light: Squeeze harder by holding the upper end of the handle.
Tape jam: In the unlikely event the tape does not feed properly, remove the tape wheel, discard
left over tape ends, and replace the wheel.
Preparing Problem Surfaces
Use non-residual solvents (i.e., alcohol, acetone) to clean oily or greasy surfaces. If the surface is
rough or porous, coat it with a sealer (i.e. shellac, lacquer). Once stuck, water will not affect the
label. Do not apply labels to surfaces exceeding 140 F.
1. Load Tape
Expose 3" of the tape, open the tape compartment (A), and insert so that āUā shape opening in the
tape cartridge points down. Insert the tape into the feed slot and thread forward until visible.
Close the tape compartment to lock in the tape.
2. Advance Tape
By turning the feeder (B) or with several half-squeezes (squeeze until click sound is audible) of
the handle (F), advance the tape 1/4" past front of embosser.
3. Emboss Letters
Turn the wheel (E) until the desired letter aligns with selector. Squeeze the handle (F) firmly and
repeat for each letter. To space between words, half-squeeze handle until click is heard.
DO NOT HOLD WHEEL WHILE EMBOSSING.
4. Cut Tape
Squeeze the cutter (C) and remove excess tape from the end of the embosser.
5. Apply Label
Pull the end of the tab to strip the backing. Apply tape to a clean dry surface.
6. Change Wheel
Push wheel right to left and remove. Snap in the new wheel.
DO NOT SQUEEZE HANDLE WHILE CHANGING WHEEL.
