Replacing the Ribbon Cartridge
Remove the separator from the new
ribbon cartridge and discard it. Then
turn the ribbon-tightening knob in the
direction of the arrow to remove any
slack in the ribbon.
Hold the cartridge with the ribbon-
tightening knob up. Fit the cartridge’s
two front notches (➀) over the small
pegs on each side of the printer as
shown. Then lay the cartridge flat so
that the rear notches (➁) fit over the
corresponding pegs.
