Loading the Paper Roll and Ink Ribbon
17
Depending on the position of the break in the tape, 
the ribbon for one sheet of printed paper may be 
lost.
Note
If you turn the paper roll too far, too much paper 
will be fed. This may cause the paper jamming. 
Stop turning the paper roll right after the marking 
hole turns blue.
Removing the Ink Ribbon and 
Paper
When the error message “PAPER END” or “RIBBON 
END” appears on the LCD, the paper or ink ribbon 
corresponding to the designated number of sheets has 
been used up. 
Proceed as follows to remove the ink ribbon and paper 
roll, and then load a new ink ribbon and paper roll.
1
Remove the scraps of paper ejected and 
accumulated in the paper tray.
Note
If scraps of paper have accumulated in the paper 
tray, the front door may not open completely.
Discard the scraps of paper ejected each time you 
replace the ink ribbon and paper roll with new ones.
2
