2.3.2 Loading the Ribbon
There are two types of media available for printing on: these are thermal
transfer media and direct thermal media (a chemically treated surface).
DO NOT LOAD a ribbon when using a direct thermal media.
1. Grasp the tabs on the top and bottom of the Ribbon Stoppers and
move the Ribbon Stoppers back to the end of the Ribbon Shaft.
2. Leaving plenty of slack between the ribbon spools, place the ribbon
onto the Ribbon Shafts as shown below.

NOTES:
1. When attaching the ribbon
stoppers, make sure that the
pinchers face into the printer
2. Be sure to remove any slack in
the ribbon when printing.
Printing with a wrinkled
ribbon will lower the print
quality.
3. The Ribbon Sensor is mounted
on the rear of the Print Head
Block to detect a ribbon end.
When a ribbon end is
detected, “NO RIBBON”
message will appear on the
display and the ERROR LED
will illuminate.
