6.3.3 Replace the printer ribbon

To replace the printer ribbon:

1.

Remove the two screws that hold the printer bar and remove the printer bar.

2.

Remove the four ¼” nuts that hold the print head assembly.

3.

Tilt the chassis tray up as in

section 6.3 on page 26

, step 1. Locate the printer ribbon

cable connector.

Note:

The connector must be unlocked by pulling the edges of the connector away from the PCBA

before attempting to remove the cable from the connector.

4.

Carefully remove the cable from the connector.

5.

Replace the printer ribbon and follow steps 4 to 1 to assemble the printer ribbon.
