Important!
• Once tape is pulled out, there is no way to get it back into the cartridge.
• Never use excessive force when pulling on the tape. Doing so can cause the
ink ribbon to break, creating the risk of malfunction.
5. Use a pencil or some other thin object to take
up slack in the ink ribbon as shown in the
illustration. Note that the tape does not move at
this time.
• If the ink ribbon is slack when you load it into the
Label Printer, it can break or cause some other
problem.
• Be sure to turn the ink ribbon take up spool only
in the direction indicated by the arrow (a).
• Turn the spool until the other spool (b) starts
turning in the direction noted by the arrow. This
indicates there is no slack in the ribbon.
