Setting the ink ribbon

Do not touch the surface of the ink

ribbon with your hands.

1.

Activate the slide knob and open the printer door.

When the slide knob is moved, the printer door opens
downwards. Hold the door with your hand and open it
slowly.

Do not put the ink ribbon or retransfer

film on the back of the door for mounting. Do not rest
your elbows or put a heavy thing on the back of the door.
The printer door may be broken.

2.

Remove the ink ribbon cassette.

When the lever is pressed, a small portion of the
cassette pops out.

When transporting the unit, remove

the ink ribbon and the retransfer film, then place the
cushion on the thermal head. Transporting without the
cushion may cause the thermal head and roller to
malfunction.
Do not use cushion materials other than the transfer
cushion that comes with the unit, as this may cause
damage to the head.
