Tips:
If nothing comes out when you print, click on Properties, go up to Stock and under Print Method choose Direct Thermal and then OK. This should correct it.
If labels are printing and then get out of line where it will not print, reset the printer. To do this, hold down the green button on the front side. It will flash once, then twice, three times and then four. After the four in a row, let go. It will feed out some blank ones, but will reset to the right place.
If it’s still not printing right, contact the Help Desk.
