Loading and Removing an Ink Ribbon Cassette
An ink ribbon cassette is required when printing disc labels.
You should use only the special ink ribbon cassettes that are specified for this printer.
If you plan to print a tape label for a disc case, you need to load a tape cartridge.
To load the ink ribbon cassette
1. Press to turn off the printer.
2. Press the cassette cover release and open the cover.
3. Remove the stopper from the ink ribbon cassette.
4. If there is slack in the ink ribbon, use your fingers as shown in the illustra-
tion to rotate the spindle of the cassette to remove the slack.
• You may need to rotate the spindle several times if there is a lot of slack.
Important!
• Never pull on the ink ribbon with excessive force or try to push the ink
ribbon into the cassette.
• Loading the ink ribbon cassette while the ink ribbon is slack creates the
risk of malfunction.
