| Adjusting the Ribbon | |
Ribbon tension in this printer is already adjusted for the recommended ink | ||
| ribbon and media and is very tolerant to different types of media. However, it | |
| may slip due to imperfect combinations of ribbon and media and it is possible | |
| that you will see a “Ribbon End” message even though the ribbon is not | |
| finished. This is more likely to happen with narrow width ribbons, especially | |
| those less than 50mm (2 inches). |
|
| To resolve this problem and obtain the optimum printing condition, make | |
| adjustments in the following manner (this should be done after the printhead | |
| pressure adjustments on the previous page are made): | |
