Changing The Ribbons; Change The Print Ribbon - Rimage Everest III User Manual

Changing the ribbons

The Everest printer has two ribbons – the print ribbon and the retransfer ribbon. This section describes how to
change both ribbons.
Tip: Before you change either Everest print ribbon, allow time for the new ribbon to become acclimated to
the environment. Allow more time for greater temperature and humidity differences.
Important! Ribbons must be stored at a temperature between 50°– 90°F (10°– 32°C). Avoid moisture and
direct sunlight. Do not reuse ribbons.
