Loading Paper
To load paper, follow the procedure below. Be careful 
not to touch the printing surface.
Notes
• Use only paper recommended. Failing to do so is 
likely to result in malfunctions such as paper jams. 
(See “Ink Ribbon and Paper” on page 15.)
• When a blank sheet of paper is ejected and the 
RIBBON indicator lights, the ink ribbon has been 
exhausted. Replace the paper together with the ink 
ribbon. Do not use the ejected blank paper.
