Adjusting The Ribbon - Citizen CL-S700 User Manual

Setting the Ribbon (p.26)

Adjusting the Ribbon

Ribbon tension in this printer is already adjusted for the recommended ink
ribbon and media and is very tolerant to different types of media. However, it
may slip due to imperfect combinations of ribbon and media and it is possible
that you will see a "Ribbon End" message even though the ribbon is not
finished. This is more likely to happen with narrow width ribbons, especially
those less than 50mm (2 inches).
To resolve this problem and obtain the optimum printing condition, make
adjustments in the following manner (this should be done after the printhead
pressure adjustments on the previous page are made):
