I've been trying to print information on the axes of a graphic. I'm doing that by the option FrameLabel in the ErrorListPlot function. But it failed.

Here the code I'm using 

Needs["ErrorBarPlots`"];

d    = Import["teste.txt", "TSV"];
dNew = Table[{{d[[i, 1]], d[[i, 2]]}, ErrorBar[d[[i, 3]]]}, {i, 2, Length[d]}];

ErrorListPlot[dNew, FrameLabel -> {"Position, x (inches)", "Photodetector output (V)"}]

The result

enter image description here

How can I fix it?

Thanks for the attention.

In ErrorListPlot, there is not such an option as "FrameLable", but "AxesLable", so use "AxesLable" instead of "FrameLable", just like this enter image description here

Another way to do that is using function "Show, like this:

 ErrorListPlot[Table[{i, RandomReal[0.5]}, {i, 10}]];
 Show[%, Frame -> {{True, False}, {True, False}}, 
 FrameLabel -> {"Position, x (inches)", "Photodetector output (V)"}]

enter image description here

I'm sorry that my poor English is very poor, so I can not give much explain

You need to add Frame -> True to specify FrameLabel:

Needs["ErrorBarPlots`"] 

ErrorListPlot[{
  {{1, 1}, ErrorBar[0.2]},
  {{2, 2}, ErrorBar[0.1]},
  {{3, 4}, ErrorBar[0.3]},
  {{4, 6}, ErrorBar[0.4]}}, 
 Frame -> True,
 FrameLabel -> {"Position, x (inches)", "Photodetector output (V)"   },
 GridLines -> Automatic,
 Joined -> True]
