I could be wrong, but I think you are connected through a (null modem) serial cable without proper flow control, so the printer fills up with an error condition after 60 labels. If you're usinf this caqble, it would be screwed into a nine pin connector on your PC and would be screwed into a 25 pin connector on the lower part of the back of the printer. If I'm wrong, please let me know and I'll try again.
There are two banks of dip switches on the back of the printer, with a chart showing their meaning (baud, data bits, stop bits, parity). The switches are only read when the printer powers up, so cycle the power if you change them.
The settings on the PC must match these settings.
Right click on the printer name, select "Properties", "Ports", (probably) "Com1", "Configure Port". Set the same baud, data bits, stop bits and parity as the printer, and also turn on Xon/Xoff flow control.
Please let me know if this works, or if I'm wrong. Label_Guy
