Operation

Step ➌ Install the ribbon roll onto the rear ribbon (supply) spindle pair so that the ribbon feeds from the top of the roll toward the back of the printer. The ribbon roll installs the same as the ribbon (take-up) core.

Wrap the ribbon around the print carriage, aound the ribbon tracking bar and above the media guide bracket.

Caution:

The ribbon does not follow the same path as the labels. The ribbon threads above the brackets that hold the media guides and transmissive (gap) sensor guide bar.
