Place the supply end of the ribbon in between the green and gray ribbon drive hubs
located on the right-hand side of the printer’s interior (match the green ring of the ribbon
to the green ring of the drive hub). Make certain that the ribbon is fed from underneath
the ribbon roll. Hint: The ribbon drive hub is on the right side of the printer, as you are
looking into the EC1000 from the front side. Use the end of the ribbon supply core to
push in this ribbon drive hub when inserting the ribbon. Place the take-up end of the
ribbon roll in between the two gray ribbon drive hubs located on the left-hand side of the
printer’s interior. Load the ribbon take-up end just as you loaded the ribbon supply end.
