Gently press the printhead carriage down until it is fully lowered, as shown below.
Very little force is necessary to perform this step.
Caution
: Do not touch the printhead if the printer has been in service within
the last 10 minutes. It could be very hot and cause a burn.
Electrostatic discharge caution:
A static discharge is possible if you touch any
exposed metal parts. Use of an anti-static wrist strap or comparable
anti-static protection is required.
Note:
During normal operation (with power connected and turned on), the ribbon would
automatically synchronise when the printhead is restored to its fully-down position. The
ribbon would be identified and the corresponding parameters sent to the driver.
Since power is not connected at this point in the installation and setup procedure,
nothing will happen when the printhead carriage is closed. The ribbon will synchronise
when power is turned on.
