Smart Label Printer Models 220 and 120
Q Will my labels fade over time?
A Labels use a thermal-sensitive paper to create the image.
Heat applied to the paper causes a chemical reaction to
generate black dots at the points where heat was
applied. This technique avoids using messy inks and
ribbons. Because the paper is heat-sensitive, it is
possible for a label to darken if exposed to high heat or
very bright light for an extended period of time. It is also
possible for certain plasticizers in some plastic binders to
cause a chemical reaction which results in the image
fading over time. Placing another adhesive (perhaps
another label) between the vinyl surface and the label
may help minimize this type of fading.

In general, labels will last for years if they aren’t
subjected to the above conditions. The label material is
much more stable than Fax paper due to the special
formulation and coatings used by Seiko Instruments.

Q How many labels can I save?
A The number of labels you can save is limited only by the
amount of disk space in your computer.
Q I just bought an SLP 120/220, but there is no place to plug
it into the back of my computer. What do I do?
A You need to install another serial port into your system.
The SLP connects to COM1, COM2, COM3, or COM4.
You can use a switch box, but you may find it much
more convenient—and less expensive—to have a serial
board installed.

Q The only available place to plug the SLP cable into the
back of my computer is the opposite type. Should I get a
gender changer?
gender changer?
A This is likely to be your parallel port connector. The SLP
requires a serial port, and cannot be connected to a
parallel port without a special adapter available
separately from Seiko Instruments. See “Replacement
Parts and Accessories” in Appendix D for ordering
information.
