Resolution/Answer

Before connecting the printer to your computer, to make sure that
the printer works properly, conduct media calibration and print a
self-test/ configuration label.

1. Make sure the media is properly loaded and the top cover of
the printer is closed.
2. Turn off the printer power.
3. Press and hold the FEED button while turning on the power,
until printer motor is activated.
4. Media Calibration will be performed while the printer
automatically feeds the label stock for a certain length; then
the printer motor suspends for one second and then prints out
configuration/ self-test labels. Release the FEED button as
soon as printer starts to print.
