2.3.2 Loading the Ribbon
Skip this setup for D2 model.
There are two types of media available for printing on: thermal
transfer and direct thermal (which has a chemically treated
surface). DO NOT LOAD a ribbon when using direct thermal
media.
1. Grasp the tabs on the top and bottom of the Ribbon Stoppers
and move the Ribbon Stoppers back to the end of the Ribbon
Shaft.
2. Leaving plenty of slack between the ribbon spools, place the
ribbon onto the Ribbon Shafts as shown below. There are 2
possible ways to load the ribbon.
NOTE:
To check or change settings on which type of Ribbon winding to be
used, you must go to SYSTEM Mode in the Printer. For more details
refer to Key Operation Specification.
NOTES:
1. When attaching the ribbon
stoppers, make sure that the
pinchers face into the printer
2. Be sure to remove any slack
in the ribbon before printing.
Printing with a wrinkled
ribbon will reduce the print
quality.
3. The Ribbon Sensor is
mounted on the rear of the
Print Head Block to detect a
ribbon end. When a ribbon
end is detected a “NO
RIBBON” message will
appear on the display and
the ERROR LED will
illuminate.
