2. PRINTER SETUP
2.8 Loading the Ribbon
WARNING!
1. Do not touch any moving
parts. To reduce the risk
of fingers, jewellery,
clothing, etc. being
drawn into the moving
parts, be sure to load the
ribbon once the printer
has stopped moving
completely.
2. To avoid injury, be
careful not to trap your
fingers while opening or
closing the cover.
3. Be sure to open the top
cover fully, otherwise the
top cover may close,
causing injury.
NOTE:
The ribbon sensor is mounted on
the rear of the printer block to
detect a ribbon end. When a
ribbon end is detected, "NO
RIBBON" message will appear
on the display and the ERROR
LED will illuminate.
1. Grasp the tabs on the top and bottom of the ribbon stoppers and move
the ribbon stoppers back to the end of the shaft.
2. Leaving plenty of slack between the ribbon spools, place the ribbon
onto the ribbon shafts as shown below. When the ribbon is fitted, it
must be positioned in the ribbon sensor.
