Pull the green lever backwards and lift the head/cutter unit until it locks into the correct position

Take the paper roll out and dispense any paper scraps inside the printer and around the out-feed and in-feed slots

To prevent paper jams, use a soft brush or an air blower to clean paper scraps and paper dust from the cutter and rollers of the in-feed and out-feed slots of the paper

Ensure the top of the new paper roll is straight. If not, cut the top straight before feeding it into the printer.

Insert the new paper roll onto the paper holder; the tip of the paper must feed out from the upper side of the roll.

Close back the head/cutter unit and make sure it locks properly into its original position (as how it was before Step 3 was performed)

Pull the paper tip and insert it into the in-feed slot of the printer. Make sure the paper is pulled straightly and not loosely from the roll.

Wait for the paper to load automatically into the printer. The blinking out-feed slot indicates the paper has been successfully cut, which means the printer has worked properly

Lift the printer back to its original position and make sure it locks properly
