Installing the Ribbon
With the dust cover removed, you have easy access to the
printer for ribbon installation and paper loading. The next time you
install a ribbon or load paper, you can leave the cover on.
Now you’re ready to install the ribbon.
1. Manually move the print head to the middle of the platen.
WARNING
The power must be OFF when moving the print head. Moving
the print head when the power is ON may damage your
printer. If you’ve been using your printer just before changing
the ribbon cartridge, be careful not to touch the print head
because it becomes hot during use.
2.
Before loading the cartridge into the printer, turn the small knob on
top in the direction of the arrow to tighten the ribbon as shown in
Figure
1-4.
