RIBBON INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT

If the ribbon is already installed, simply check to see that it is properly 
threaded between the paper and the Print Head.

If the Ribbon Cassette is not installed, or if it must be replaced due to 
excessive wear, faint printing, etc., follow this procedure:

1. Set the Power Switch to OFF. (NOTE: When you turn power OFF, any  
   information stored in the Printer's buffer will automatically be lost.)

2. Raise the Top Cover and gently move the Print Head Adjustment Lever 
   toward the front of the Printer as far as it will go.

3. Gently push the Ribbon Cassette supporters on both sides outward, using  
   your thumbs, and remove the Cassette by lifting it upward, bottom end  
   first.

4. Unwrap the new Cassette. Before inserting the new Cassette, tighten the  
   ribbon by turning the knob in the direction indicated by the arrow, 
   press the right side of the Cassette.

5. Do not force the Cassette into place! If the Cassette is not properly 
   fitted, the cassette knob will not match up with the shaft from the 
   Carriage. Do not force the Cassette down but fit in gradually while 
   turning the cassette knob in the indicated direction.

6. Once the new Cassette is installed, tighten the ribbon by turning the  
   cassette knob in the indicated direction.

7. Set the Print Head Adjustment Lever (see "Paper Loading" section).

8. Replace the Top Cover.

NOTE: Do not print without paper and/or ribbon. The print head or platen 
      will be damaged.
