- Switch located bottom left of the printer.
- Lift the lever located on right and slide in the vinyl
- You should hear the printer “turn on” when they vinyl is inserted and covering the sensor.
- Adjust the wheels making sure they are under the white line markers and on each end of the vinyl.
- The wheels can only be moved from the back

- The printer will size the paper and take notes.
- Gently hold the vinyl as it is moved backwards and forwards
