The printer can be powered using batteries or AC
power. Visit www.dymo.com for information on
obtaining an optional rechargeable battery pack or AC
power adapter.
Remove the batteries if the printer will not be used
for a long period of time.
Connecting the Optional Power Adapter
The printer uses an optional power adapter (DYMO
Switching Adapter 9V DC 2A). Connecting the power
adapter with the optional battery pack inserted
recharges the battery pack.
For optimal power, use the optional rechargeable
Lithium-ion battery pack or the AC power adapter.
To save power, the printer automatically goes into
standby mode after two minutes of inactivity and
automatically turns off after five minutes of inactivity.
Make sure the power adapter is disconnected
before handling the Lithium-ion battery pack.
To connect the power adapter
1 Plug the power adapter into the power connector
on the top of the printer. See Figure 3.

3 Remove the battery from the battery compartment.
Setting the Label Width
Make sure to read the Lithium-ion Safety
Precautions found on page 20.
Each time you insert a label cartridge into the printer, you
are prompted to set the label width so the printer knows
what size label you are currently using. Some of the
features you use to design labels depend on the width of
the label. You can change the label width setting at any
time from the Settings menu.
Recharging the Battery Pack
The battery pack automatically recharges while the printer
is connected to a power source through the power
adapter. Charging the battery pack for the first time will
take approximately eight hours; recharging the battery
pack will take approximately two hours.

Creating Industrial Labels
Creating Flag Labels
A flag label wraps around a wire or
cable leaving the text part of the label
extending out from the cable. The text
on a flag label is automatically printed
on both ends of the label, leaving a
blank space in the middle that wraps
around the cable. When the label is
applied to the cable, both ends of the label are applied
back to back leaving a tail or flag. The result is a label that
can be read from both sides.
The current label type is displayed in the Caption bar. By
default, the label type is General with no special
formatting, text center aligned, and the length
automatically determined by the amount of text.
Pressing a Hot Key always changes the current label type
to the selected label type. For example, if you choose Flag
and later want a General label, press the General key to
remove the Flag settings and return to General label type.

Using Custom Defaults
You can serialize any number or letter by selecting the
character to be incremented, such as the number 2 in
123 or the letter B in ABC. For example, when the 2 is
selected in 123 and the increment is 3, the resulting labels
would print as 123, 153, 183, and so on.
Each time you create a label, you are guided through
selecting the settings for the type of label you are
creating. However, you can set custom defaults for each
label type. Once custom default settings are created for a
label type, you can quickly create that type of label using
these custom default settings.
Letters can be incremented from A to Z and a to z, and
numbers from 0 to 9. When the letter Z or the number 9 is
reached during serialization, a letter or number is added
to increase the increment. For example, Az increments to
Aaa, AZ increments to BA, and A9 increments to A10.
