2. Hold the ribbon supply spindle and rotate the ribbon tension adjustment knob to meet your media/ribbon widths based on the table below. Ensure that the ribbon tension adjustment knob is turned fully to the clockwise or counter-clockwise position, the knob will no longer turn once it is in the proper position, do not force or over turn.
