in front of the printer. A drawing showing the correct
position for all supported printers and optional location
guides for alignment is inside the back cover.
2. Print or feed approximately 36 inches of labels from the
printer.
3. Bend and separate the supply along the perforations into
individual strips for about 18 inches (Figure 12).
