Setting up the printer
When unpacking, verify that you have received the printer, manual, installation CD,
power supply, power cord, and a USB cable.
!
Connect the "D"-shaped end of the USB interface cable to the connector on the rear
panel of the printer. When prompted by the installation software connect the
rectangular end of the cable to an available USB port on your computer.
!
NOTE: DO NOT CONNECT THE PRINTER TO A USB KEYBOARD OR OTHER HUB AS THE
POWER SUPPLIED BY THESE DEVICES IS INSUFFICIENT.
!
Connect the power cable to the AC adapter; next, connect the AC adapter to the
connector on the printer. Plug the power cable into a properly protected AC outlet.
!
NOTE: ONLY USE THE ADAPTER AND CORD THAT CAME WITH YOUR PRINTER.
!
The printer will automatically turn on when the power adapter is plugged into both
the printer and an AC outlet.

Loading the Labels or Paper
• Use only COMPanion part number V6101 (Yellow Badge labels) or V6301

• Press the form-feed button to eject the protection labels.
• Open the printer by lifting the cover and remove any packing materials.
