Getting Started
Follow the instructions in this section to print your 
first label.
Connecting the Power
The label maker is powered by alkaline batteries or 
an optional AC power adapter. To save power, the 
label maker automatically turns off after two minutes 
of inactivity.
Inserting the Batteries
The label maker is powered by six AAA alkaline batteries. 
To insert the batteries
1
Press the thumb latch on the back of the label maker 
to remove the battery compartment cover. See 
Figure 2.
2
Insert the batteries following the polarity markings 
(+ and –).
3
Replace the battery compartment cover.
Remove the batteries if the label maker will not be 
used for a long period of time.
Connecting the Optional Power Adapter
An optional 9 Volt, 2 A power adapter can be used to 
power the label maker. Connecting the power adapter 
to the label maker disconnects the batteries as a 
power source.
To connect the optional power adapter
1
Plug the power adapter into the power connector on 
the top of the label maker.
2
Plug the other end of the power adapter into a 
power outlet.
Inserting and Removing the Label Cassette
Your label maker uses DYMO D1 label cassettes. Visit 
www.dymo.com for information about purchasing 
additional label cassettes. 
To insert the label cassette
1
Lift the label cassette cover to open the label 
compartment. See Figure 3.

Make sure that the label and ribbon are taut across 
the mouth of the cassette and that the label passes 
between the label guides. See Figure 4.
If necessary, turn the ribbon rewind spool clockwise 
to tighten the ribbon.
