Inserting Slip Paper

Notes:
Do not use wrinkled, folded, or curled paper.
Use only slip paper that matches the printer’s specifications.
To prevent paper jams, install both paper rolls in the printer even if you
plan to print only on slip paper.
1. When the SLIP LED flashes,
insert slip paper, using the right
edge of the slip paper inlet as a
guide. See illustration 7.
2. When the printer detects the
paper, it automatically draws it
in and begins printing.
CAUTION:
Be sure to put the caution label exactly in the position shown. If you put
it another place, such as over the slip paper inlet, the printer may be
damaged.

Installing a Ribbon

Use the EPSON ERC-31. The use of any ribbon cassettes other than
those approved by Epson may damage the printer and will void the
warranty.
1. Turn the printer on and open the ribbon cover.
2. Turn the ribbon cassette’s knob 2 or 3 times in
the direction of the arrow in illustration 8 to
take up any slack.
3. Insert the ribbon in the printer and rotate the
cassette’s knob 2 or 3 more times to place the
ribbon in the correct position.
