Setting method
1. Check the kind of ribbon used and set the ribbon winding
selection switch. This is the method for installing an outside
wound ribbon.
This switch allows selection of inside-wound ribbons (also known as "ink
in") and outside wound ribbons ("ink out"). Remember, the inked surface
should be facing AWAY from the printhead surface!
