Important!

Never try to move the print head while the printer is plugged into a power outlet. Doing so can damage the printer. If you have just used the printer, let the print head cool for a few minutes before you touch it.

❏Remove the ribbon cassette from its package.

❏Rotate the knob on the ribbon cassette clockwise to take up any slack in the ribbon.

❏Carefully place the cassette onto the cartridge holder making sure that the spindle of the holder fits into the socket on the bottom of the cassette.

❏Press down gently but firmly on the cassette until it snaps securely into place.

❏Rotate the knob on the cassette again to take up any slack.

❏Close the front cover of the printer.

Important!

Printing that is poor quality or too light is almost always due to a ribbon that is simply worn out or “used up.” If you experience problems with print quality, check the condition of the ribbon. If the black part looks gray and well-worn, replace the ribbon with a new one.
