Load the Ribbon

Note • This section applies only to printers that have the Thermal Transfer option installed.

Ribbon is used only with thermal transfer labels. For direct thermal labels, do not load ribbon in the printer. To determine if ribbon must be used with a particular media, see When to Use Ribbon on page 18.

Caution • While performing any tasks near an open printhead, remove all rings, watches, hanging necklaces, identification badges, or other metallic objects that could touch the printhead. You are not required to turn off the printer power when working near an open printhead, but Zebra recommends it as a precaution. If you turn off the power, you will lose all temporary settings, such as label formats, and you must reload them before you resume printing.

Important • Use ribbon that is wider than the media to protect the printhead from wear. Ribbon must be coated on the outside.

To load ribbon, complete these steps:

1.Raise the media door.
