Installing the ribbon cartridge
Before installing the ribbon cartridge, make sure that the
power cord is not plugged into an electrical outlet.
1. Raise the paper-guide cover and rest it on the printer cover.
Lift the paper guide up and off. Lift the printer cover up
and off. Grasp both ends of the clear plastic paper-tension
unit; lift up the front of the unit and then lift it off.
Warning:
Never move the print head while the printer is turned on; this
can damage the printer. Also, if you just used the printer, the
print head may be hot. Let it cool for a few minutes before
touching it.
