Configuring Printer Settings for Your DuraLabel 4000

Overview

We recommend checking your DuraLabel 4000’s settings before beginning any print job. Changes to these settings may not take effect correctly if your label design software is already running; we recommend closing any open programs, making the necessary changes, and then opening your label design.

FEED Key

After pressing the FEED key, the printer will feed the media (according to media type) to the specified stop position. When printing with continuous vinyl, pressing the FEED key will feed the vinyl out to a certain length. When printing with die-cut labels, the printer will feed one label each time the FEED key is pressed. If the label is not sent out in a correct position, please proceed with Auto Sensing (see below).

Auto Sensing

The printer can automatically detect the label and record the result of the detection. By doing this, the printer will calibrate the printing position of the label, and the user can print without setting the label length.

To Perform Auto Sensing:

1. Make sure the label is correctly loaded in the printer.
2. Power off the printer, then press and hold the FEED key.
3. Power on the printer while still holding the FEED key. Keep holding the FEED key, wait for the LED light turn to flash red, and then release the FEED key. The printer automatically detects the label and records it.
