Loading the ribbon
The printer automatically detects if a ribbon is installed and consequently switches to either
thermal direct or thermal transfer print mode. If the printer does not detect a ribbon, the motor
that drives the ribbon spindle will be turned off.
With thermal direct print (paper with heat sensitive surface coating) you must ensure no
ribbon is present.
