Press the Power Button to turn the Label Printer on. The Status LED turns green.
Click Print button.
First let’s do some basic settings. Double click“New Layout”and drag the edges of the blank layout to adjust the label size or click on “Paper”tool from the toolbar and select proper size for your label. You can also change “Length” and “margins” as well as Label Direction (Vertical/Horizontal) on the same panel.
Now you can start designing your labels:
There are several cutting options for you to choose. If you choose Auto Cut, each label is automatically cut after printing. When the Auto Cut and Half Cut options are selected simultaneously, only the last label will be fully cut after printing. The printer can also be set to cut the labels after a specified number of labels are printed.

Betckey's labels are so much cheaper than dymo's official ones, but the quality is almost the same, and I'll always use Betckey as a replacement.
