4.With the cover open, place the supply end of the ribbon in between the two black Ribbon Drive Hubs located on the far right- hand side of the printerÕs interior. Make certain that the ribbon is fed from underneath the ribbon roll. (Hint: The Ribbon Drive Hub nearest you, as you are looking into the printer from the front, is spring loaded. Use the end of the ribbon supply core to push in this Ribbon Drive Hub when inserting the ribbon.)
