Getting Started 1
Section 1: Getting Started
THANK YOU…
... for choosing an LX910e Color Label Printer. The LX910e Printer
will print razor-sharp text and barcodes, vibrant colors, and even
stunning photo-realistic photographs directly onto rolls
of labels, card stock and a variety of other approved media.
This User's Manual is your complete step-by-step guide to quickly
and easily setting up and printing with your new Color Label
Printer!
A. CHOOSING A GOOD LOCATION
• Place the printer on a flat surface in a location with
adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build up.
• Do not place the printer near heat sources such as radiators or
air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sun light,
excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
• Allow for adequate clearance in front of the printer to
accommodate the printed label stock as it is leaving the printer
to avoid the possibility of binding or jamming of the label stock.
• Allow for adequate overhead and left side clearance for opening
the top cover to allow easy access to the label stock and ink
cartridge. The printer will require 24 cm (9.5 inches) of
additional space on the left side to completely open the cover
(Total = 68 cm or 26.75"). The printer will require an additional
40.4 cm (15.9 inches) of overhead space to open the cover (Total
= 63.5 cm or 25").

C. IDENTIFYING THE PARTS
This illustration shows the front of the printer with its control
buttons and LED indicator lights.
The Pause Button is pressed to pause a job to allow for loading of
label stock and ink cartridges. The printer pauses after the printing
of the current label has finished. The Pause LED will illuminate
when the printer is paused.
The Power LED indicates that the printer is on and ready to receive
print jobs.
The Load/Feed Button is pressed in order to load label stock if the
printer does not automatically detect the stock. When stock is
loaded each press of the button will cause one label to be fed
through the printer.
The Ink Low LED will illuminate when a cartridge has 10% or less
of its ink remaining.
The Unload Button will unload the installed label stock by reversing
it through the printer. Make sure to tear off the
printed labels before pressing the Unload Button.
The Label Tear Bar is a serrated edge for conveniently tearing your
finished labels from the printer. The printer comes with a white tear
bar guard. For smoother label feeding, leave the guard in place
during printing. When you are ready to tear off a label, remove the
guard, tear off the label and replace the guard.
