8 Printer Setup

o While guiding the ribbon between the print head and print head shield, press down the ribbon fabric by pen.

o By hand, move the printer head left and right making sure that the ribbon fabric comes into correct position.

o Replace the front cover of the printer.

Important!

Printing that is poor quality or too light is almost always due to a ribbon that is simply worn out or “used up.” If you experience problems with print quality, check the condition of the ribbon. If the black part looks gray and well-worn, replace the ribbon with a new one.

Use the following procedure to remove the ribbon cassette from the printer when you want to replace it with a new one.

o Make sure that the printer is unplugged from its power outlet.

Caution!

Never move the print head while the printer is turned on. Doing so can damage the printer. If you have just finished printing, let the print head cool for a few minutes before you touch it.
