3. Connect the D-shaped end of the USB cable to the connector on the bottom of the printer.
4. Connect the power cable to the AC adapter, then connect the AC adapter to the printer. Plug
the power cable into a properly protected AC outlet. The printer will automatically turn on.

Loading Labels
Because these printers use thermal printing technology, you must use special labels. COMPanion’s
warranty does not cover malfunction or damage caused by the use of labels other than COMPanion
V6110 Badge Printer Labels or V6310 Student Slip Paper.
1. Press the form-feed button to eject the protection labels.
2. Lift the cover to open the printer and then remove any packing materials.
3. Following the directions on the inside the printer, load the labels onto the spool with the labels
feeding from below. Make sure that the roll is positioned tightly on the spool with no gap
between the roll and the spool.
4. Feed the labels into the printer, aligning the labels with the left wall of the printer and against
the label guide. Then press the form-feed button on the front of the printer.
5. Gently close the lid.
An error light will blink if paper nears its end or is incorrectly installed:
●Solid Blue: Power is ON and printer is ready
●Dimmed Blue: Printer is in power-saving mode
●Flashing Blue: Labels are not loaded properly or the label roll is empty
