3. Remove Old Roll (if applicable): If replacing an empty roll, carefully remove the old core and any remaining label material.
4. Load New Roll: Place the Smith Corona label roll onto the spindle or into the label compartment. Ensure the labels feed off the bottom of the roll (or as directed by your printer's manual) so the printable side faces the print head.

1. Install Printer Drivers: Ensure the correct drivers for your thermal printer are installed on your computer.
2. Configure Printer Settings: In your operating system's printer settings or your label design software, select your thermal printer and configure the page size to match the 4x2 inch dimensions of these labels. Ensure the media type is set to 'Direct Thermal' or 'Thermal Paper'.
3. Design or Select Label: Use your preferred label design software (e.g., BarTender, ZebraDesigner, or shipping software) to create or select the label you wish to print.
4. Cetak: Send the print job to your thermal printer. The printer will heat specific points on the print head, which will react with the thermal coating on the labels to create the image or text.

Always perform a test print after changing label rolls or adjusting settings to ensure proper alignment and print quality.
