Replacing the Ribbon
When the printing becomes too faint, you need to replace the
ribbon cartridge. Use the Epson ribbon cartridges listed below
for best results. Genuine Epson ribbons are designed to work
properly with your Epson printer; their high quality ensures
proper operation and long life of the print head and other
printer parts. Using any other ribbon may damage your printer.
Standard fabric, #7753
Film, #7768
To replace the ribbon cartridge, follow the steps in “Installing
the ribbon cartridge” in Chapter 1.
Note:
Use
the optional film ribbon cartridge when you want especially
high quality printing. For everyday operations, use the standard
ribbon cartridge.
Do not use a ribbon cartridge designed for
9-pin printers.
