(c) Loading the Ribbon
1. Lift the printer top cover and keep it in the open position.
2. Release the print head module and raise it to the vertical position.
3. Unwrap the ribbon roll.
4. Place the supply roll into the supply holder of the print head module with the notch
on the left-hand side as shown in the diagram. The spindle is on a spring and will
allow for easy fitting of the ribbon.
5. Fit the take up core into the spindle inserting the left-hand side first.
6. Release the leader end of the ribbon and attach it squarely to the upper spindle (this
is the take-up core).
7. Take up any slack in the ribbon by rotating the white cog on the left-hand side of the
printer.
8. Press the print head module down firmly until it snaps into place on both sides.
9. Close the top cover.

This procedure is not necessary when direct thermal media is used.
