5. Use a pencil or some other thin object to take

up slack in the ink ribbon as shown in the
illustration. Note that the tape does not move at
this time.

If the ink ribbon is slack when you load it into the
Label Printer, it can break or cause some other
problem.

Be sure to turn the ink ribbon take up spool only
in the direction indicated by the arrow (a).

Turn the spool until the other spool (b) starts
turning in the direction noted by the arrow. This
indicates there is no slack in the ribbon.

ink ribbon pass between the head and roller.

Part 3

Inputting Characters and Symbols

This part of the manual tells you how to input characters. To make things easier
to understand, we call everything you input a character, regardless of whether it
is actually a letter, number, or symbol. Explanations here all use the default
settings that are in effect from the initial power-on screen.
For information on using other character styles, effects and sizes, see page E-15.

Important!

You can input up to 80 characters per label. Further input becomes impossible
after you input the 80th character.

Display Symbols and Indicators

Before getting into actual input, you should first become acquainted with the
symbols and indicators used on the Label Printer display.
