2.8 Loading the Ribbon

When the printer is turned on, it automatically detects whether a ribbon is
installed or not and switches the printing method between thermal
transfer or direct thermal. If the printer does not detect a ribbon (direct
thermal mode), the motor that drives the ribbon spindles will be turned
off.

1. Open the Top Cover.
2. Push down on the Ribbon Access Cover to unlock and open.

3. Insert one of the Ribbon Spindles into a ribbon core in the orientation

shown below, with the ink side facing outside. Then, mount it on the
Rear Hubs.

4. Insert the other Ribbon Spindle into the Paper Core supplied with the

printer, and mount it on the Front Hubs.

WARNING!

1. Do not touch any moving

parts. To reduce the risk
of fingers, jewellery,
clothing, etc. being drawn
into the moving parts, be
sure to load the media
once the printer has
stopped moving
completely.

2. To avoid injury, be careful

not to trap your fingers
while opening or closing
the cover.

CAUTION!

Be careful not to touch the
Print Head Element when
opening the Top Cover.
Failure to do this may cause
missing dots by static
electricity or other print quality
problems.
