Ribbon Supply and Rewind Units

EasyCoder PD41/PD42 Printer Service Manual
DO NOT loosen the screws that hold the bearing and the one-way
clutch to the bracket. Doing so will affect the factory-adjustment of
the supply and rewind units and can cause ribbon creasing
problems.
Die Schrauben, mit denen das Lager und die Kupplung an der
Halterung befestigt sind, NICHT lockern. Dies verändert die
Werkseinstellung der Zufuhr- und Aufwickelmodule und kann zu
Bandfaltungsproblemen führen.
5 Remove the belt from the pulley on the rewind unit. Make sure that the
spring and washer stay on the supply unit shaft.
6 Reassemble in reverse order.
The ribbon supply and ribbon rewind units look exactly the same, but
differ in having internal springs with different strength. Only the ribbon
core spring blade is replaceable as described in the next section.
At the outer end of each unit is a knob for adjusting the ribbon tension, see
below.
