When using the 2UPC-R156/R156H 
Printing Pack
About 20 sheets of printouts can be left on this paper 
tray. However, the number of printouts which can be 
accumulated on the paper tray changes according to the 
environment condition where the printer is used or the 
printed image. Remove the printed sheets accumulated 
on the paper tray as soon as possible.
To remove the paper tray
Hold both sides of the paper tray with both hands, and 
remove the paper tray toward you while pushing it 
downward.
If the Ink Ribbon Breaks during Use
The remaining ribbon can be used after repairing it with 
adhesive tape.
1
Pull out the upper ribbon of the white spool, attach 
one edge of a strip of adhesive tape over the entire 
end of the ribbon, then attach the other edge of the 
adhesive tape on the end of the lower ribbon of the 
black spool.
2
Remove the lower black spool and remove any 
slack from the ribbon. Then, attach the ink ribbon 
again.

Lift the ribbon base up and pull the paper cartridge 
of the printer toward you.

printer until the marking hole turns red.

the ribbon base. Then, close the front door by
