Print head
Caution
The power must be off when you move the print head because moving
the print head when the power is on may damage your printer. Also, if
you’ve been using your printer, be careful not to touch the print head
because it becomes hot during use. Let it cool for a few minutes.
2. Move the print head by hand to the center of the printer so that
the other parts of the printer will not get in your way.
3. Grasp the ribbon cartridge by its handle and hold the cartridge so
that the exposed strip of ribbon is facing away from you.
