Installing the Colour Option
The visual appearance of any printout can be enhanced by using the colour
option in combination with a 4-colour ink ribbon.
When colour printing is not required it is recommended to use a black ribbon in
order to increase the lifetime of the colour ribbon. The colour option does not
have to be removed when printing with a black ribbon.
To Install the Colour Option
- Switch the printer ON
- Lift the top cover (2) as shown in the illustration.
- Remove the black ink ribbon cassette (11).
- Switch the printer OFF.
The print head may be very hot immediately after printing.
Caution:

holding down the string of cables leading to the print head.
- Insert the blue plug (40) into the connector socket (41) of the colour option.
