Avoid touching the tip of the thermal
printhead with your hands.

Feed the leading edge of the dye film
over the tip of the Thermal Printhead and
beneath the two guide bars, where fitted.
(Refer to the diagram on the side).

Fasten the end of the dye film onto the
Take-up Core with a small piece of
adhesive tape, and wind on a couple of
turns. Avoid creasing of the dye film and
position it centrally on the core.
