Removing the ribbon cassette

Use the following procedure to remove the ribbon cassette from the printer when you want to replace it with a new one.

❏Make sure that the printer is unplugged from its power outlet.

❏Open the front cover of the printer.

❏By hand, move the cartridge holder to the center position of the paper guide where there is a cutout to allow easy installation and removal of the ribbon cassette.

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.

❏Using your thumb and forefinger to squeeze the two tabs on the ribbon cassette towards the center, carefully remove the cassette from the holder.

❏Use the procedure under “Installing the ribbon cassette” on page 5 to install a new cassette.
