Loading labels into clamshell style desktop printers can be tricky. This goes for the Bixolon SLP-DX420, too.

Remember, as a direct thermal printer you’ll want to be sure you’re using direct thermal labels.

Below are the instructions on how to load 1” core roll labels into your SLP-DX420 printer:

  1. Open the printer
  2. Spread the paper holder and insert the roll of labels
  3. Guide the media under the paper guides and out of the printer
  4. Close the printer
  5. Plug in the power cord and USB cord before turning on the printer
  6. Press the Feed Button once – the printer will automatically calibrate
