Precautions for using the Ribbon Saving Function
The ribbon saving module is standard on the B-SX5T series, but not on the B-SX4T series. Also, the
ribbon saving function has been set to off by the parameter setting when the printer is delivered.
Therefore, to use the ribbon saving function on the B-SX4T series, it is necessary to install the
B-9904-R-QM optional ribbon saving module and to enable the ribbon saving function by the parameter
setting.
Regarding the B-SX5T series, you only need to enable the ribbon saving function by the parameter
setting.
When enabling the ribbon saving function, it must be set depending on the head lever position. For
details, please contact the nearest TOSHIBA TEC service representative or sales agent.

NOTES:
1. Be sure to match the parameter setting to the head lever position according to the media type.
Mismatching may cause a failure of the ribbon saving module.
2. The amount of the saved ribbon differs depending on the print pattern and print speed.
3. When the head lever position is set to Position ‚: Tag and "RBN SAVE ON(TAG)" is selected, the
amount of the saved ribbon is a little less than that of "RBN SAVE ON(Label)" with the head lever
position •: Label due to a control of the mechanism.
