I still use one from the old days every once in a while myself. I don't know what you need to know, just load the tape in it, turn the wheel until you get the letter you want and squeeze. Repeat as necessary. Cut the tape with the built in cutter, remove the backing tape, and stick the label where you want it.
Works good, lasts a long time unless it gets hot, then it will go blank.

P. S. It will look better if you trim the sharp corners a little bit with sisscors.

The tape cartridge only fits into the handle one way. Pull some of the tape out and feed it into the pick up slot. Depress the handle trigger about half way down a few times. This will feed the tape through and out the other end. Close the handle cover. Now you are ready to go. Select letters and or numbers, then press handle fully down. When done there is a cutter to press. Tag is now ready to peel and stick.
