To load thermal transfer ribbon
1 Make sure you have raised the printhead. If not, turn the head lift lever
clockwise until it releases the printhead.
2 Place the empty ribbon core that came with the printer onto the ribbon
rewind hub.
3 Detach the leader from the new thermal transfer ribbon roll and unwind
the end of the ribbon approximately 20.32 cm (8 in). The edge of the
ribbon has a leader (with an adhesive strip on the leader edge) for
guiding the ribbon through the printhead mechanism.
4 Slide the roll of thermal transfer ribbon onto the ribbon supply hub
with the ribbon roll winding clockwise.
5 Route the ribbon leader through the printer mechanism as shown in the
following illustration.
6 Attach the leader from the new thermal transfer ribbon roll to the
empty ribbon core using the adhesive strip on the leader edge.
Note: Make sure the ribbon runs above the upper media guide. The
shiny side of the ribbon must come in contact with the printhead.
7 Wind the ribbon rewind hub clockwise until the ribbon runs smoothly
through the printhead mechanism and the leader moves past the
printhead.
