After opening the parcel, be careful not to make the surface of the ink ribbon dirty, and install it soon.

If you preserve the ink ribbon cassette for a long time, the ink will be dry and the ink ribbon cassette's life will be shortened. Please use it soon. If you do not use it soon, put it in an airtight receptacle and preserve it in a cool and dark place.
