8 Printer Setup

o While guiding the ribbon between the print head and print head shield,

press down the ribbon fabric by pen.

o By hand, move the printer head left and right making sure that the ribbon

fabric comes into correct position.

o Replace the front cover of the printer.

Important!

Printing that is poor quality or too light is almost always due to a ribbon that is

simply worn out or “used up.” If you experience problems with print quality,

check the condition of the ribbon. If the black part looks gray and well-worn,

replace the ribbon with a new one.

Removing the ribbon cassette

Use the following procedure to remove the ribbon cassette from the printer

when you want to replace it with a new one.

o Make sure that the printer is unplugged from its power outlet.

Caution!

Never move the print head while the printer is turned on. Doing so can damage

the printer. If you have just finished printing, let the print head cool for a few

minutes before you touch it.
