Warning:
You need to move the print head by hand to remove the ribbon
cartridge. If you have just used the printer, the print head may
be hot; let it cool for a few minutes before touching it.
1. Remove any paper loaded in the printer. Make sure the
printer is turned off.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet; then
disconnect the interface cable from the printer.
3. Remove the paper guide.
4. If a pull tractor is installed, remove it as described in
“Removing the pull tractor” on page 2-24. If any options are
installed, remove them and pack them in their original boxes.
5. Make sure that the print head is not hot. Then remove the
ribbon cartridge as described in Chapter 1.
6. Remove the paper tension unit as described on “Installing the
tractor in the pull position” on page 2-14. Attach the
protective locking clips on both sides of the printer roller.
Then install the paper tension unit as described on “Removing
the pull tractor” on page 2-24.
7. Make sure the tractor that comes with your printer is installed
in the push position. See “Loading paper onto the push
tractor” on page 2-6 for instructions.

cord in the original packing materials and place them in the
printer’s original box.
