Handling the Ribbon
• Hold the ribbon spools by the ends to avoid fingerprints. Fingerprints on
the ribbon web severely reduce image quality.
• Wear lint-free gloves when working with the ribbon.
• Do not expose the ribbon to direct sunlight, extreme heat, dust, or
liquids.
• Leave the printer cover closed except when you need to access the
inside of the printer.
Storing the Ribbon
For highest image quality, store ribbon as follows:
• Store unopened ribbon at temperatures below 77˚F (24˚C).
Avoid exposure to temperatures higher than 100˚F (38˚C).
• Wrap partially used ribbons in their original wrappers to protect them
from dust and dirt when they are not in the printer. Dust and dirt specks
on the ribbon show up as much larger spots on prints.
