Introduction
Loading the Ribbon
The ribbon provides dyes for printing images. The three-color ribbon contains
enough dye to make 50 prints. The ribbon also contains clear patches that
protect images from fingerprints and fading.
Handling Ribbon Spools
• Do not expose the ribbon to direct sunlight, extreme heat, dust, or liquids.
• Leave the top cover closed unless you need to access the inside of the
printer.
• Avoid touching the ribbon.
Storing Ribbons
For the highest image quality, store ribbons as follows:
• Store unopened ribbons at temperatures below 77°F (25°C). Avoid
exposure to temperatures higher than 100°F (38°C).
• Keep partially used ribbons in their original wrappers to protect them from
dust and dirt when they are not loaded in the printer. Dust and dirt specks
on the ribbon show up as much larger spots on prints.
