Introduction
Before beginning, remove the AC adapter from the label maker and make sure the device is powered off.
Step 1
Removing the back piece of the label maker.
- There is a plastic tab located on the back of the label maker near the top. The tab has ridges on it to help you identify where to press. Push on this tab to release the back of the label maker.
- Gently pull the label maker apart - it will split in half.
- Be careful! The electronics inside are very sensitive and easily damaged.
