F. Replacing the Foil Cartridge
Change the foil cartridge when you wish to change the color of
the printed text, or when the cartridge is empty.
a. The PowisPrinter™ will automatically detect when it is time to
change the foil cartridge. The screen will display:
CARTRIDGE EMPTY--
Please insert new one
b. Make sure that a Binderstrip™ is not in the machine. If one is,
close the door, and the strip should eject. If it doesn’t, see
Chapter VIII, Fixing Jams, to remove it.
c. Open the Front Door (figure 20).
d. Grasp the foil cartridge at the top and the bottom and pull it
straight out of the machine.
e. Take out a new foil cartridge. Remove the orange shipping
tab.
f. Look at the cartridge. Does the foil balloon out? If it does, turn
the purple wheel on the cartridge clockwise, so the foil
tightens up. The foil should have no slack.
g. Now insert the foil cartridge, carefully fitting it over the
printhead. The foil should slide in the gap between the drum
and the printhead. Listen for a click that tells you the cartridge
is snugly in place.
h. Close the Front Door.
