Changing the ribbon
cassette
Before opening the cover, make sure that the printer is switched on so that it can
execute automatic preparations for ribbon changing (widening the print head gap).
During the process of initialization after powering on, the printer checks if a rib-
bon cassette is installed. It also checks during the execution of a print job the op-
erativeness of the ribbon cassette. These functions mandatory require the use of
the manufacturers original ribbon cassettes (see “Accessories”, page 32). If other
ribbon cassettes were used, the message "Check Ribbon" appears in the display, it
is impossible to print.
Move the paper to the park position.
Open the printer top cover.
Cautiously slide the print head carriage to the left stop
(viewed from the printer front).
The print head heats up during printing. Let it cool
down before touching, if necessary.
