2.3.2 Loading the Ribbon

NOTES:

1.When attaching the ribbon stoppers, make sure that the pinchers face into the printer

2.Be sure to remove any slack in the ribbon when printing. Printing with a wrinkled ribbon will lower the print quality.

3.The Ribbon Sensor is mounted on the rear of the Print Head Block to detect a ribbon end. When a ribbon end is detected, “NO RIBBON” message will appear on the display and the ERROR LED will illuminate.

There are two types of media available for printing on: these are thermal transfer media and direct thermal media (a chemically treated surface). DO NOT LOAD a ribbon when using a direct thermal media.

1.Grasp the tabs on the top and bottom of the Ribbon Stoppers and move the Ribbon Stoppers back to the end of the Ribbon Shaft.
