TO INSERT MULTI-COLOR INK AND TAPE CASSETTES:
(1) Press down on the cover release button and lift open the compartment
cover.
(2) If there is a cassette already in the compartment, remove it by pulling it
straight up.
(3) If the ribbon in the ink cassette is loose, use your finger to wind the toothed
wheel in the direction of the arrow on the ink cassette until the ribbon is taut.
Then, insert the ink cassette straight down into the tape cassette.
(4) Take the adhesive tape off the end of the label tape and pull out about 1/2”
(12 mm) of label tape. If you are using an old tape cassette, be sure that the
tape is sent through the cassette and the end of the tape goes under the tape
guides.
(5) Insert both the ink and tape cassettes firmly into the compartment.
+ When inserting the cassettes, make sure that the ribbon does not catch
on the corner of the metal guide that the tape does not catch on the cutter.
(6) Close the compartment cover, then turn on the machine if necessary.
(7) Press the FEED key once to advance the tape and remove any slack.
(8) Push down on the tape cutter lever.
