1. remove the rewind plate from the front of the printer (if installed). store it upside down on the two mounting screws on the inside of the front panel.
2. open the printhead.
3. slide the media guide and media supply guide as far from the printer frame as possible.
4. load media as shown.
5. when loading media, allow approximately 36" (915 mm) of media to extend past the tear-off/peel-off bar. remove all labels from this portion to create a leader.
6. remove the hook from the rewind spindle. if you are using a core, slide it onto the rewind spindle until it is flush against the guide plate.
7. wind the label backing around either the 3" (76.2 mm) core or the rewind spindle and reinstall the hook.
8. slide in the media guide and media supply guide so they just touch, but don’t restrict, the edge of the roll.
before closing the printhead, make sure:
?1 the media is positioned against the inside guides.
?2 the media is taut and parallel with itself and the pathway when wound onto the rewind spindle/core.
9. close the printhead.
10. to discard the label backing from the rewind spindle, refer to "removing the label backing material" on page 37.
