NOTE: The Ribbon Supply Spindle in your printer may be a
"Dual-Tension" variety. Most applications require the spindle to be in the
"Normal" position. The "Low-Tension" position is recommended only when
wide ribbons are used and normal tension hampers the ribbon movement.
To place this spindle in the "Normal" position, firmly pull out on the
Spindle End-Cap until it clicks into place as shown in Figure 5a. To place
the spindle in the "Low-Tension" position, firmly push in on the Spindle
End-Cap until it clicks into place.
