Ribbon Clips - Sharp SX 1075 Service Maintenance Manual

RIBBON CLIPS

The ribbon clips are used to hold the core of the
ribbon to the ribbon supply hub assembly (Figure 3-
265).
TESTING
WARNING
Always remove electrical power from the
SX prior to performing any maintenance
on the machine.
1. Open the cradle cover, and spin the roll of
ribbon. Watch the supply hub assembly. The
supply hub should spin in unison with the roll of
ribbon. If the ribbon roll spins independently,
the ribbon clips need replacement.
ADJUSTMENT
The ribbon clips are adjustment free.
REPLACEMENT
1. Open the cradle cover, and remove the ribbon
core from the ribbon supply hub assembly.
2. Remove the button head cap screws from
whichever clip(s) need replacement. Install the
new ribbon clips onto the individual hubs as
needed.
