Maintenance
Installing the Ribbon Cassette
The printer has a factory loaded ink ribbon cassette. Remove the power from the printer.
Unlock the front cover by pushing down on the tab at the top of the front panel.
Push the mechanism release button in the top right corner to release the print head.
To remove the ribbon cassette gently pull out the left end then the right.
Replace the cassette by putting the right end of the new cassette slightly onto the drive axle then
gentle pushing the left end into the clips.
The left end of the cassette can only be pressed in after the right end has been correctly seated onto
the drive axle. If alignment is difficult it may be necessary to turn the knob on the cassette slightly.
Now check that the ribbon is tight across the face of the cassette, which is on the inside of the
cassette and across the paper. Turn the knob clockwise again if the ribbon is on the outside of the
cassette.
