Chromebook Not Printing via Flashlabel Plugin

Why isn't my printer responding?

Your printer must be in ChromeOS Mode to work with Chromebooks. Follow these steps:

Step 1: Check Printer Mode

1. Print a self-test page (How to Print a Self-Test Page).

2. Locate "U-Disk Mode" on the test page:

   • ✅ "OFF" = Correct mode (ChromeOS Mode enabled).

   • ❌ "ON" = Incorrect mode → Proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Switch to ChromeOS Mode

(Required if U-Disk Mode is "ON")

1. Ensure the printer is:

   • Powered ON

   • Loaded with correct label paper

2. Press and hold the function button (top button) for ≈9 seconds.

3. Release immediately when you hear three beeps.
