LABEL SETUP

Vevor is capable of working with labels in various sizes, and it needs to learn your label properties before its first use.
To initiate Automatic Label Identification and run Intelligent Label Study, please follow these steps:

1. Power On
   Turn on the power and wait for about 5 seconds until the printer is initialized.

2. Automatic Label Identification
   Insert the label from the backside of the printer, the printer will grab the label and move back and forth, then stop with the green light on. Not a single label will be wasted during this procedure.
   It’s suggested to adjust the label guide to match the width of the label if necessary before the label is pushed in.

3. Intelligent Label Study
   Press and hold the feeder button for about 3 seconds until you hear one beep then release, the label will move back and forth several times to study the label size, then you can start printing. Since the printer needs to measure the length of the thermal paper, a stack of labels with at least 3 sheets is required to complete the process.
