Due to differences in ribbon material, ribbon wrinkles may occur during printing.
When this happens increase the ribbon tension by:
1. Pushing the end of the shaft in.
2. Then turn the ribbon shaft clockwise to increase the tension.
If narrower ribbons are being used (especially ribbon widths of less than 2”),
the Printer might have a problem feeding labels.
When this happens decrease the ribbon tension by:
1. Pushing the end of the shaft in.
2. Then turn the ribbon shaft counterclockwise to decrease the tension.
