Loading Thermal Transfer Ribbon (PF8t Only)
You need to use thermal transfer ribbon to print on thermal transfer
(non-heat-sensitive) media. Make sure to select ribbon that matches
the face materials of the media to obtain the best durability and print
quality.
To load a thermal transfer ribbon roll
1 Press the cover open buttons on both sides, and open the cover.
Note: The PF8t can use only ribbon that is “wind direction out,”
which means that the ribbon is loaded with the inked side (dull side)
facing out. Using thermal transfer ribbon that is “wind direction in,”
may damage the rewind motor.
