5.Place the full spool on the right hand side ribbon hub and press it into place.

IMPORTANT The full spool has a barcode label on the bottom side and a date code label on the top. Once the sensor reads and logs the ribbon barcode, the Integrated Print Management System starts to track ribbon usage. A date code label is on the top side of the right hand spool.

If you remove the ribbon during the course of its life and want to re-install the same ribbon, be sure to place the same spools on the correct hubs.
