Step 4: Installing the ribbon cassette
Transport fixture
(cardboard strip)
Ribbon spool
Caution! Make sure not to crease or tear the
ribbon when inserting it. Otherwise the ribbon
might break.
Also make sure the edges of the ribbon do
not fold over. Folded ribbons are thicker and
prematurely fill the take-up ribbon spool.
• Open the flap of the ribbon cassette com-
partment by lightly pressing the release
catch.
The flap swings up automatically to the stop.
• Take the supplied ribbon cassette from the
packing.
A cardboard strip may be present in the rib-
bon cassette as transport fixture (see the
illustration).
• If present: Remove the cardboard strip.
• Tension the ribbon. Turn the white ribbon
spool in the direction of the arrow.
