Adjusting the Ribbon Supply Spindle
Ribbon Supply Spindle: Normal Position
In the Normal Position, the “Dual-Tension” Ribbon Supply Spindle provides the
desired amount of ribbon back-tension for different ribbon widths.
To place the Spindle in the Normal Position, firmly pull the Spindle End-Cap until it
clicks into place, as shown in Figure 8.
Ribbon Supply Spindle: Low-Tension Position
Low-Tension Position is used in
limited applications
with ribbons wider than 2.4"
(60 mm) to provide lower ribbon back-tension. Low-Tension Position is only
recommended when normal tension hampers the ribbon movement.
To put the Spindle in the Low-Tension Position, firmly push the Spindle End-Cap until
it clicks into place, as shown in Figure 8.
