5-2 Ribbon cassette mounting method
①
Prepare the ribbon cassette. Loosen the ribbon cassette
about 10mm by pressing it in the arrow direction using the
shaft of a ball-point pen or the like.
④
Keep the printer carriage unmovable by pressing it with
the left hand, and mount the ribbon cassette in the arrow
direction by the right hand.
②
After opening the door, turn off the power switch and draw
out the chart.
⑤
Refer to the top view shown below. The ribbon cassette is
mounted diagonally as illustrated below. Make sure that
face A of the printer carriage and face B of the ribbon
cassette are mounted without any clearance.
When the ribbon cassette is mounted completely, a click is
heard by the locker spring.
③
Move the printer carriage to about the center by hand.
⑥
After the ribbon cassette has been mounted normally,
straighten the ribbon by turning the ribbon knob clockwise
1-2 turns. Reset the chart rack unit to the chassis.
