Étape 1 - Inner & Outer

The instructions for both the Inner & Outer wound labels are on the inside of the open lid.




Étape 2 - Rewind Spool

There will be no ribbon and as the settings will be for Peel Off a length of blank backing needs to be fed onto the Rewind spool



Étape 3 - Printhead access

To gain access turn the green knob to FREE. You can then pull the front plate down and lift the printer head up.



Étape 4 - Setting Rewinder

Ensure the switch is set to REWINDER



Étape 5 - Label Guides

With the Printhead open ensure that the labels are under the small black sprung guides. Slide the green guide to the width of the label.



Étape 6 - Sensor Position

Ensure that the sensor head is in the middle of the label



Étape 7 - Closing Label Head

When loaded close the Printhead down, lift the front plate up and turn the green knob to LABEL.



Étape 8 - Connecting printer to PC

For easy setup use a USB cable (Alternatively everything can be done via the network web interface)


1) Connect a USB cable to the PC

2) Connect a Network cable to a live DHCP network to obtain an IP address.

3) Download and install the BCP setup software: https://www.toshibatec.com/download_overseas/printer/setting_tool/BCP_Series/ [1]

Étape 9 - Initial Power up

If the labels have been fitted properly on power up the calibration process will eject several labels.

Take a note of the IP address given to the printer on the front panel.



Étape 10 - Using BCP to setup the printer

When you start BCP you should see as picture

Select USB if not Selected



Étape 11 - Change Settings

Press the Emulation Button and take the top option "Zmode System Parameter Settings"


Then Make the changes

  • Label Length 38mm (after calibration this will be reset to 41.3)
  • Label Width 98mm
  • Ribbon WITHOUT RIBBON
  • Print mode PEEL OFF
  • Sensor TRANS PREPRINT
  • Max Label Length (for calibration) 200mm (this just saves on labels)

Press the DOWNLOAD button and check that there are no errors.


Now on the Toshiba side:

  • Select Paraeter Settings
  • Select Standard 2 (General 2 on BCP TOOL)
  • Adjust Cut Adjust to -2.0

Étape 13 - Testing

1) Pressing "Feed" should push out another label regardless.

2) Send a label to the printer via the network (or via the Test - Send file within BCP).

Étape 14 - Set the IP Address for the Customers network
