Installation and Setup

Loading a Ribbon

Caution • Do not touch the print head if the printer has been in service within the last 10 minutes. It could be very hot and cause a burn.

Electrostatic Discharge Caution • A static discharge is possible if you touch any exposed metal parts. Use of an anti-static wrist strap or comparable anti-static protection is required.

4.Gently press the print head carriage down until it is fully lowered, as shown below. Very little force is neccessary to perform this step.

Note • During normal operation (with power connected and turned on), the ribbon would automatically synchronize when the Print Head is restored to its fully-down position. The ribbon would be identified and the corresponding parameters sent to the driver.

Since power is not connected at this point in the Installation and Setup Procedure, nothing will happen when the Print Head Carriage is closed. The ribbon will synchronize when power is turned on.
