dull side of the ribbon should be facing down as it travels
through the print head module.

following the routing as shown in the diagram above. Be
sure that the ribbon travels under the black plastic ribbon
sensor.
6. To secure the ribbon on to the core, manually turn the
rewind spindle twice. You may also choose to use a small
piece of tape to hold the leading portion of the ribbons to
the ribbon core.
7. If the media is already loaded, raise the Head Latch
Support Bracket and close the Head Latch by pushing
downward and close the Side Access Door.
Note: The new empty core of each subsequent roll becomes the next rewind
core.
