The printer stops; the

In thermal transfer mode, ribbon is
not loaded or incorrectly loaded.
Load ribbon correctly.
In thermal transfer mode, the
ribbon sensor is not detecting
ribbon that is loaded incorrectly.
1. Load ribbon correctly.
2. Calibrate the sensors.
In thermal transfer mode, media is
blocking the ribbon sensor.
1. Load media correctly.
2. Calibrate the sensors.
In thermal transfer mode, the
printer did not detect the ribbon
even though it is loaded correctly.
1. Print a sensor profile. See Print
Sensor Profile on page 76. The
ribbon out threshold (marked by
the word
RIBBON) is likely too
high, above the black area that
indicates where the ribbon is
detected.
2. Calibrate the sensors or load
printer defaults.
If you are using direct thermal
media, the printer is waiting for
ribbon to be loaded because it is
incorrectly set for thermal transfer
mode.
Set the printer for Direct Thermal
mode. See Select Print Method
on page 66.
