Ribbon running condition within Part C does not normally cause problems. However,
ribbon running condition within Part C can help find the solution. Examining the ribbon
running condition at the bottom edge of the ribbon applicator can indicate adjustments

Make sure of the following prior to the adjustment:
• Use full width media (5.2 in./132 mm) when checking.
• Rotate the head pressure screw clockwise completely.
• Set up the printer with factory default parameters.
1. Select the print data which exhibits even horizontal contrast. Feed a few blank
labels, then issue about ten media (labels) for inspection of running conditions.
2. Check the ribbon for wrinkles. If wrinkles are present, stop the media (labels) by
[PAUSE]. See Figure 13 as an example of wrinkles produced on the bottom right
side of the ribbon.
