New Ribbon

Whenever you install a new ribbon, you must reset the ribbon life to 100%. Use the New Ribbon option to reset the ribbon display.

Ribbon Action

This option allows you to perform three functions:

activate the RibbonMinder ink consumption display

disable the ink consumption display

flash a fault message when the display reaches 0%

Displaying the ribbon ink consumption allows you to monitor the percentage of ink left in the ribbon. Disabling the ink consumption monitor removes the visual display, but allows RibbonMinder to continue monitoring how much ink is left in the ribbon. The Fault option activates a flash message when the display reaches 0%. The default is disable.
