Operational Procedures

Ribbon Life Indicator
The second line of the LCD displays the remaining life of the currently
installed ribbon. The default settings for this feature should match the
requirements for most applications; no special user setup is needed. If your
particular application requires darker printing or can tolerate lighter printing,
the ribbon end point can be adjusted as appropriate. Please refer "Ribbon
End Point" on page 68.
Operational Procedures
This section contains routine printer operating procedures on how to:
•

reload paper

•
unload paper
•
cancel a print job.
Reload Paper
Do this procedure when "LOAD PAPER" displays. (This message occurs
when the last sheet of paper passes through the paper slot.) This procedure
reloads paper without removing the last sheet of the old paper supply, while
retaining the current top-of-form setting.
Cabinet Models
1. Raise the printer cover. Raise the platen lever as far as it will go.
(See Figure 4 on page 23 for the location of the lever.)
2. Press ON LINE/CLEAR to turn off the alarm. Do not open the tractor
doors or remove the existing paper.
3. For cabinet models, open the front door. Align the paper supply with the
label on the floor. Ensure the paper pulls freely from the box.
