BEFORE OPERATION
Place the ink ribbon cassette containing the ink ribbon in
the position as shown in the illustration.
To insert the ink ribbon cassette, align the protrusions on both sides of the
cassette with the right and left guides inside the slide door and slide it in a
slanting direction.
Mount the ink ribbon cassette firmly by holding the handle.
• Do not touch the thermal head. Fingerprints or dust on the
thermal head will degrade the print quality.
NOTE
Do not touch the thermal head right after printing because it is
extremely hot. Otherwise you may get burned or injured.
CAUTION
Note that the thermal head is quite sensitive to static electricity.
When you touch the thermal head while carrying static electricity
on your body, the thermal head may be damaged.
NOTE
• Insert the ink ribbon cassette slowly. If it falls from the insertion
slot, the printer or accessories may be damaged.
NOTE
When not changing the print paper, push the slide door
to close.
