CAUTION: Let the printer cool before you clean the inside of the

moving parts on the printer mechanism for signs of wear or damage.

This illustration shows the visible moving parts of the printer mechanism.
Use a low-pressure, dry air source, such as “canned air” available at elec-
tronic supply houses and typewriter repair facilities, or a vacuum, to re-
move accumulated paper dust from the printer mechanism.
The printer ribbon contains a special lubricant to ensure that the fine dot
wires inside the print head receive adequate lubrication. Replace the rib-
bon frequently to prolong the life of the print head. The printer requires
no additional user-applied lubrication. Ribbon cartridges, available in
black or purple, are sold separately. See “Inside Sales” in Chapter 1 for or-
dering information and part numbers.
Removing Old Ribbon Cartridge
Physically move the print head mechanism to an open area, then do the
following to remove the old ribbon cartridge:
1 Squeeze the ribbon cartridge locking tab (on the side of the cartridge)
against the ribbon cartridge.
2
Lift the ribbon cartridge to remove the ribbon from the print head. En-
sure the ribbon does not catch.
