3 Use of Narrow Media/Ribbons
(Ribbon Tension Adjustments)
Ribbon tension of this printer is already adjusted to the recommended ink ribbon and media.
Ribbon and media, however, may slip due to imperfect combination of ink ribbon and media,
where a message ‘RibonOut’ will be shown on the LCD display. To resolve this problem and
obtain the optimum printing condition, make adjustments in the following manner (this should be
done after the printhead pressure adjustments on the previous page are made):
1. Adjusting Places
When turning adjust-screw on winding section, use a flat-tip screwdriver.
2. Adjusting Method
(1) General ribbon and media
Factory setting: both marks on winding and
feeding sections are set to STANDARD so as
to obtain the optimum printing condition for
the recommended ink ribbon and media.
