7 Firmly close the printer's top cover.
8 Tap the Feed button until the status LED turns green.
When you switch between direct thermal and thermal transfer
printing, or when you switch between different types of transfer
ribbon, you can remove a partially used transfer ribbon and save it for
later use.
To remove a partially used ribbon
1 Press the cover open buttons on both sides of the case to open the
top cover. Lift the cover upwards and rearwards.
2 Press the green release tabs at the bottom of the top cover on both
sides of the printhead and lift the print carriage halfway up while
keeping the top cover fully opened.
3 Using a pair of scissors, cut the transfer ribbon just below the
rewind roll.
4 Rewind the unused ribbon onto the supply spool. Remove the roll
by pushing it to the left until the right end disengages then lift the
roll up. Fasten the loose end with a piece of tape or label to prevent
the roll from unwrapping.
5 Remove the rewind roll by pushing it to the left until the right end
disengages, then lift out. Dispose of the used ribbon.
Note: Keep the ribbon core. You will need it the next time you load
ribbon.
