Mending broken ink ribbon and

retransfer film

If the ink ribbon or retransfer film is broken, mend it in the following procedures:

1. Trim neatly the end of broken portions with a pair of scissors.

About printing errors

If blurring or color shifts occur in your print results, clean all rollers starting with the cleaning rollers. Some image errors may depend on the design of the card to print.

In particular, wrinkles can easily occur if large surfaces are printed with high density ink.

To avoid such problems, contact the dealer where the printer was purchased concerning card designs.

2. Align both ends and apply the Scotch tape in the center of the aligned ends.

Please do not discard the used ink or film on the winding side.

3. Turn the ribbon or film to the winding side with your hand until the mended portion is completely wound up.

Align both ends evenly

CAUTION

Set the ink ribbon and retransfer film with care. See p.14 and p.16.
