Loading the Paper Roll
and Ink Ribbon
This section describes how to load the paper roll and ink
ribbon in the preparation to start printing, after
connecting the printer as described on page 8.
Handling the Paper Roll and Ink Ribbon
Notes
• Each printing pack contains two sets of the ink ribbon
and paper roll combination. Use the ink ribbon and the
paper roll in the carton as a set. Do not mix with other
varieties of ribbon or paper roll. (See "Ink Ribbon and
Paper" on page 27.)
• The number of sheets that can be printed differs
depending on the printing pack. One set of the ink
ribbon and paper roll allows you to print the following
number of sheets.

• Do not replace the printing pack if it has only been
partially used. If the paper roll or ink ribbon is
replaced after only partial use, the above print
capacities are not guaranteed.
• When setting the paper roll down, place it vertically as
shown. If you place the paper roll horizontally, the
paper may roll around and fall. This may cause an
injury.

• Hold the paper roll with both hands so that you do not
drop it, because it is heavy. Dropping may result in an
injury.
Hold the paper roll with both hands.
• Do not detach the black and white spools of the ink
ribbon until you start loading the ink ribbon.
• An IC chip is embedded in the black spool. Do not
touch the terminals on the IC chip with your hands
or metal objects, and do not dent, drop, or
otherwise apply shock to the IC chip. Doing so may
cause the ink ribbon to become unusable.

paper roll and ink ribbon.
For detailed information on how to remove the paper
and ink ribbon, see "Removing the Ink Ribbon and

Before loading the paper roll and ink ribbon
Confirm that the printer is powered on. If not, turn the
printer power on.

correctly after loading of the paper roll and ink ribbon is
completed.
Also, after you have used up one paper roll, clean the
thermal head and rollers before loading a new paper roll
and ink ribbon.
