Loading Ribbon
The CX200TT thermal transfer printer transfers ink from a ribbon to the la-
bel to produce an image.
1. Lift open the top cover.
2. Press the two print head releases back to unlock the print head.
3. Unwrap the new ribbon and unwind about 4" from the roll. The end of
the ribbon is attached to a take-up core.
4. Observe the notches on both ends of the supply core and the take-up
core. These notches must fit on the corresponding nibs on both the
supply and take-up spindles.
5. Roll several turns of ribbon on the take-up core, winding to the under-
side as shown. The dull (coated) side of the ribbon must be on the
outside of the take-up roll.
6. Place the take-up core (ribbon unrolling from the top side) into the left
take-up spindle. The take-up spindles are the top set of spindles.
7. Pull out the spring loaded knob on the right take-up spindle and place
the right end of the take-up core into the right spindle, lining up the
notches with the spindle nibs.
8. Pull the ribbon down and over the print head and insert the supply core
onto the left supply spindle, making sure the notches in the core fit
over the nibs.
9. Pull out the spring loaded knob on the right supply spindle and place
the right end of the supply core into the right spindle, lining up the
notches with the spindle nibs.
Note:
Make sure the (coated) dull side of the ribbon is to the outside where it will
be in contact with the label media.
10. Turn the supply spindle to pull the ribbon over the print head without
any slack. Check to make sure there are no ribbon wrinkles.
11. Lower the print head and press it down firmly until it locks closed on
both sides.
10. Close the top cover.
11. Wait until the Ready Indicator glows green and press the FEED button
to feed a label or to resume printing.
