Place the label paper correctly into the paper bin or tray according to the instructions in the printer manual.
Close the paper bin or tray to ensure that the label paper is properly secured.
Connect printer:
Connect the printer to a computer or other device using a USB cable, Bluetooth, or other connection methods.
Ensure a stable and reliable connection between the printer and the device.
2、 Set printing parameters

Choose a template or create a new label:
Select a template suitable for cable labels in the software, or create new label designs as needed.
Ensure that the size of the template or new label matches the selected label paper.
Edit tag content:
Enter the cable information that needs to be printed on the template or new label, such as cable number, name, specifications, etc.
Adjust font size, style, and position to ensure clear and readable information.
Set printing parameters:
Adjust parameters such as printing density and printing speed as needed.
If multiple labels need to be printed, you can set the number of copies to be printed.
3、 Print labels

Click the "Print" button in the software to start printing cable labels.
Wait for the printer to complete the printing task.
Organize tags:
After printing is complete, remove the cable label from the printer.
Trim the edges of the labels as needed to ensure they are neat and aesthetically pleasing.
4、 Precautions
Printer compatibility:
Ensure that the label printing software used is compatible with the printer.
If necessary, you can refer to the printer's user manual or online support documentation for more information.
Label paper quality:
Choosing high-quality label paper can ensure clearer and longer lasting printing effects.
Avoid using expired or damp label paper to avoid affecting print quality.
Save Template:
If you often need to print cable labels of the same type, you can save the created template for quick use in the future.

During the operation, pay attention to keeping the printer and computer safe and stable.
Avoid placing flammable, explosive, or damp materials near the printer.
By following the above steps, you can successfully print the cable label using the printer. If you encounter problems in practical operation, you can refer to the printer's user manual or contact the printer manufacturer's customer service department for assistance.
