5. Install Print Ribbon
A
Remove the ribbon from the packaging. Orient the ribbon cartridge with its handles facing up near the card stock hoppers. Lower the ribbon
cartridge into place and make sure it is seated properly.
6. Detect Image Printer Ribbon
A
EC3000 detects what kind of image printer ribbon cartridge is currently installed by reading an RFID tag embedded in the cartridge. To detect the
ribbon cartridge type and align the ribbon panels, press the Menu > Settings > Printer buttons to open the Printer Utility page. Press the Auto
Detect & Configure Ribbon button. EC3000 shows its status on the touchscreen while it detects and aligns the ribbon. Press the OK button on
the Ribbon Auto Detection screen. See complete Installation and Operation manual for other issues. Press the Status button to return.
7. Install Indent Ribbon Cartridge
A
Orient the indent ribbon cartridge as shown. Insert the cartridge between the orange release button and the embosser. Press cartridge firmly
toward the floor until you feel a click. Pull up gently on the cartridge to make sure it is locked in place. Navigate to the Maintenance Menu on
EC3000. Press the Load Cartridge button. EC3000 loads the indent ribbon cartridge into the embosser and locks it in place for use. Press the
Status button to return EC3000 to the Status page.
8. Install Tipper Foil
A
Locate the foil tipper. Press down on the orange release lever on the right side of the cartridge. Gently pull the cartridge to the right and
remove. Place the large portion of the new roll on the yellow spool. Place the orange core of the new roll on the orange spool, being careful to
thread the foil under the two foil guide pins. Rotate the orange core until you can press it firmly onto the orange spool. Continue rotating until
the foil is tight across the guide pins. Place the cartridge back into the foil tipper, carefully threading the foil under the tipper heater. Press firmly
while rotating the orange spool (slightly) to align until you feel a click. Close and secure the top access door.
