LOADING RIBBON CARTRIDGE

raise and pull it back to remove it.
Note: Do not touch the print head immediately after printing as it gets very
hot.
• Turn the ribbon feed knob of the ribbon cartridge in the direction of the arrow

At this time, make sure that the ink ribbon is not protruding beyond the
ribbon separator.
