Loading The Ribbon - Toshiba B-EX6T1 Owner's Manual

2. PRINTER SETUP

2.3.2 Loading the Ribbon

NOTES:
1. When attaching the ribbon
stoppers, make sure that the
pinchers face into the printer
2. Be sure to remove any slack in
the ribbon before printing.
Printing with a wrinkled
ribbon will reduce the print
quality.
3. The Ribbon Sensor is mounted
on the rear of the Print Head
Block to detect a ribbon end.
When a ribbon end is detected
a "NO RIBBON" message
will appear on the display and
the ERROR LED will
illuminate.
ENGLISH VERSION
There are two types of media available for printing on: thermal transfer
and direct thermal (which has a chemically treated surface). DO NOT
LOAD a ribbon when using direct thermal media.
1. Grasp the tabs on the top and bottom of the Ribbon Stoppers and
move them back to the end of the Ribbon Shaft.
2. Leaving plenty of slack between the ribbon spools, place the ribbon
onto the Ribbon Shafts as shown below.
