4. Cartridge Ribbon Setting

EPSON’s Cartridge Ribbon is compact, long-lasting, and very easy to set and remove. Furthermore, you have no need to soil your fingers in handling it.

STEP 1.

Open the printer lid (or remove it).

 

 

 

 

 

STEP

2.

Confirm that

the

scale (paper retainer) is

turned

toward

the

platen and

 

 

is touching.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STEP

3.

Push the cartridge ribbon down and set

it

on the printer mechanism.

 

 

To facilitate

the

cartridge ribbon setting,

be

sure

to hold

the

projection

at the center of the cartridge case when pushing the cartridge ribbon down. (See Fig. 24.)

Put the ribbon between the head nose and the ribbon mask. In this case, the ribbon can be set easily by hooking it to the edge of the head nose and turning the ribbon feeding knob of the cartridge case in the direction of the arrow (i.e., counterclockwise) while depressing the ribbon with a ball-point pen. Then, tension the ribbon by turning the ribbon feeding knob counterclockwise. (See Fig. 25.)
