Figure 7-5. Installing the ribbon cartridge
Replace the top cover
Hold the cover upright and engage the tabs at the back. Then swing
the front edge down until the cover is closed.
Leave the cover closed during normal operation. It keeps out dust and
dirt and reduces the printer’s operating sounds. Open the cover only to
change the ribbon or make an adjustment.
Connect the printer to the computer
Connect the printer end of the interface cable to the connector socket
on the right side of the printer as shown in Figure 1-6.
Make sure the computer is turned OFF, then connect the other end
of the cable to your computer as described in the computer manual.
