Installing the ribbon cartridge
❏Rotate the knob on the cartridge clockwise to take up any slack in the ribbon.
❏Carefully push the cartridge holder by hand all the way to the left side as far as it will go.
Important!
Never try to move the print head while the printer is plugged in. Doing so can damage the printer. If you have just used the printer, let the print head cool for a few minutes before you touch it.
❏Carefully place the cartridge onto the cartridge holder making sure that the spindle of the holder fits into the socket on the bottom of the cartridge.
❏Press down gently but firmly on the cartridge to make sure that it is securely in place. The cartridge should move slightly (about 1/10” or 2.5mm) when you press down on it.
❏Rotate the knob on the cartridge again to take up any slack.
Important!
Be sure to double check that the ribbon is properly positioned between the print head and print head shield. If it isn’t, you may get poor print quality or even end up damaging the ribbon.
❏Replace the front cover of the printer. Press down on the raised parts at the back of the cover until it snaps securely shut.
