CAUTION! 
Be careful not to touch the Print Head Element while loading the ribbon. 
Failure to do this may cause missing dots by static electricity or other print quality problems.
     
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 ribbon once the printer has stopped moving 
completely.

ribbon.
