Load Ribbon
- Pull up on the cover latch and open the cover.
- Remove the existing ribbon cartridge, if installed. Grasp the finger tabs on either side of the cartridge and pull the cartridge out of the ribbon compartment. If the ribbon is spent, recycle the ribbon cartridge according to local regulations. The ribbon gauge at the bottom of the touchscreen indicates how much ribbon remains.
Store any unused ribbon in a cool, dry place. Unused ribbon will last up to six months before deterioration sets in.
- With the cartridge label facing up, grasp the finger tabs on either side of the cartridge and place it so that the ribbon is over the printhead. Push slightly to snap into place. Then, close the cover until it latches.
Note: If reusing a ribbon cartridge, turn the top spool of the ribbon counterclockwise (down) to clear the printhead area of used ribbon.
The color of the ribbon displays in the color of the text entered on the editing screen. The amount of ribbon remaining in the cartridge registers in the gauge in the lower right of the status bar.
The printer displays a message if no ribbon is installed. You do not have to install a ribbon to create a label. However, if no ribbon is installed the system defaults to the last known ribbon color used.
