Installing The Ribbon Cartridge
The Printek FormsPro printer has been designed to make installing Printek
brand ribbons a simple, clean process. Unlike other printers, there is no
need to touch the ribbon fabric or deal with difficult to position ribbon
guides. The following sections explain why the use of Printek brand ribbons
should be important to you and will guide you through installing the ribbon
cartridge.
Why Use Only Printek ® Brand Ribbons

Brand Ribbon Label
The above label on each ribbon can identify Printek brand ribbons. There
are many reasons to use only Printek brand ribbons in your FormsPro
4000se Series printer. First of all,
using only Printek brand ribbons
will automatically extend the print head warranty to two years .
The reason this is possible is that Printek brand ribbons are manufactured to
much higher quality standards than those offered by other manufacturers.
This provides not only longer print head life, but also longer ribbon life…
23
million characters as compared to only 15 million characters from some
generic ribbons.
Remember that using only Printek brand ribbons is important because the
wear that is started and the contamination that remains from even one
inferior ribbon will continue to damage the print head. Also, damage to
other printer components that is caused by the use of non-Printek ribbons
will not be covered by the printer’s warranty.
