2.4 LOADING THE CARBON RIBBON (FOR CG208TT, CG212TT ONLY)
The CG208TT and CG212TT printers enable two types of printing, Thermal transfer and Direct thermal.
Thermal transfer paper media requires the use of carbon ribbon for print application. In such a scenario, it is
the carbon ribbon that contains the ink that will be transferred to the media. Direct thermal paper media has
a coating on the surface that is made visible through the application of heat from the print head. In this case,
there is no need of loading the carbon ribbon.
1. With the power supply off, pull the cover open/close
latches on both sides of the printer toward you to unlock
the top cover, and then open the top cover.
Note:
Make sure that the cover rests firmly so that it will not fall
forward and injure your hands.
2. Pull the lever on the middle of the ribbon unit
downward to pull out the ribbon unit.
Then simply let down the ribbon unit. There is a stopper
midway through its movement range that will prevent the
ribbon unit from snapping down.
