Ribbon Load

Thermal transfer ribbons are required when printing on non heat-
sensitive media. The type of transfer ribbon should match the face
materials, so as to obtain the best durability and printout quality.

Loading a Fresh Ribbon Roll

Open the printer's top cover by pressing the release buttons on both
1
sides and folding the cover upwards/rearwards.
Press the green release tabs at the bottom of the top cover on both
2
sides of the printhead and fold down the print carriage halfway (45°
angle) while keeping the top cover fully opened.
Remove front core with the used-up ribbon and the empty core at the
3
rear. Keep the empty core!
Unpack a fresh roll of transfer ribbon and route the ribbon leader
4
down in front of the wall, that separates the print carriage from the
media compartment, so the ribbon will feed from the top of the roll
with the ink-covered side facing rearwards.
Install the ribbon roll in the rear position by placing one end over the
5
left-side hub and pushing to the left. Then align the right end with the
right-side hub and engage.
