Remove the Ribbon
To remove used ribbon, complete these steps:
1. If the ribbon has not run out, cut or break it before the ribbon take-up spindle.
2. Squeeze the ribbon against the ribbon take-up spindle tension blades (1). At the same
time, turn the ribbon take-up spindle release knob counterclockwise (
2).
The tension blades collapse into the ribbon take-up spindle, loosening the ribbon.
3. Slide the ribbon off of the ribbon take-up spindle.
Caution • Do not cut the ribbon directly on the ribbon take-up spindle. Doing so may
damage the spindle.
