Loading Thermal Transfer Ribbon
Thermal transfer printing makes it possible to use a wide range of
receiving face materials and gives a durable printout that is less
vulnerable to fat, chemicals, heat, sunlight etc than direct thermal
printing. Make sure to select a ribbon type that matches the type
of receiving material and set up the printer accordingly.
The EasyCoder PD41 can use transfer ribbon rolls wound with
the ink-coated side facing either outward or inward.
The ribbon is normally loaded in conjunction with a new media
roll. For clarity, however, the illustrations below do not show the
media roll. See the previous sections for information on how to
load media for your type of operation.
