Notes
When using ink ribbon cartridge
• Once an ink ribbon cartridge has been completely used, replace it. Ink ribbon
cartridges are not reusable.
• Do not touch the ink ribbon cartridge or place it in a dusty location. Finger prints
or dust on the ink ribbon will result in imperfect printing or malfunction of the
head.
When storing ink ribbon cartridge
• Avoid placing the ink ribbon cartridge in a location subject to:
— high temperatures
— high humidity
— excessive dust
— direct sunlight
• Store a partially used ink ribbon cartridge in its original packaging.
If your ink ribbon should tear
Repair the tear with transparent tape. There should be no problem with using the
remaining portion of the ribbon.
Transparent tape
Turn the spool in the direction of
the arrow to remove any slack
until the transparent tape cannot
be seen.
