2.2 Installing/Replacing Ink Roller

The kit includes an extra ink roller. Replace the ink roller when prints become faint or unclear.

1. Locate the ink roller compartment, usually near the print head.
2. Gently remove the old ink roller by pinching its sides or using the designated release mechanism.
3. Unpack the new ink roller and insert it into the compartment, ensuring it clicks into place.
4. Perform a few test prints to ensure proper ink distribution.

3. Operating the Price Gun

3.1 Setting Characters

The Perco X 1 Line Price Gun features 8 character bands for customization. To set your desired price or code:

1. Locate the adjustment knobs on the side of the price gun.
2. Rotate each knob to select the desired character (numbers, currency symbols, or special characters) for each position on the label.
3. Ensure all characters are aligned and clearly visible in the display window before printing.

3.2 Applying Labels

Once the characters are set and labels are loaded:

1. Position the price gun over the item where the label is to be applied.
2. Squeeze the trigger handle firmly and completely. This action prints the characters onto the label and dispenses it.
3. Release the trigger. The printed label will be ready for application.
4. Press the label onto the desired surface.
