3.
Insert the ink ribbon into the cassette.
Stretch the ink ribbon along three shafts with the ink
face of the ribbon facing outside and insert the
bobbins firmly into the bobbin holders.
Place the cassette upright on a flat surface during set-up.
When you need to take out the
cassette, for instance, to clean the printer, be sure to
put the cassette upright as shown in the above
illustration. When the ink ribbon is put on the table
with its face down, dusts attach to the surface,
causing a malfunction of the printer.
4.
Wind the ribbon, taking up the slack.
Turn the knob in the arrow direction to wind a small
portion of the ink ribbon. If the ink ribbon does not
wind up, go back to step 3, and insert the ink ribbon
firmly into the bobbin holders.
If the ink ribbon is not tightly
wound, the slack may cause the ribbon to be caught
in the parts of the printer when you set the cassette,
or the card to be printed in uneven colors.
Setting the ink ribbon
Do not touch the surface of the
ribbon with your hands.
1.
Activate the slide knob and open the printer
door.
When the slide knob is moved, the printer door opens
downwards. Hold the door with your hand and open it
slowly.
Do not put the ink ribbon or
retransfer film on the back of the door for mounting.
Do not rest your elbows or put a heavy thing on the
back of the door. The printer door may be broken.
2.
Remove the ink ribbon cassette.
When the lever is pressed, a small portion of the
cassette pops out.
When transporting the unit, remove
the ink ribbon and the retransfer film, then place the
cushion on the thermal head. Transporting without
the cushion may cause the thermal head and roller to
malfunction.
Do not use cushion materials other than the transfer
cushion that comes with the unit, as this may cause
damage to the head.
