RIBBON CASSETTE

If the ribbon is already installed, simply check to see that it is properly
threaded between the paper and 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 the power OFF, any
   information stored in the Printer's buffer will automatically be lost.)

2. Open the Printer cover.

3. Hold the fin on the cassette and gently pull the ribbon cassette upward.

4. Unwrap the new cassette.  Before inserting the new cassette, tighten the
   ribbon by turning the knob in the direction indicated by the arrow.

5. Gently slide the ribbon between the ribbon mask and the print head.
   Gently press down on the left side of the cassette until you hear a
   click sound.  While rotating the cassette knob in the direction
   indicated by the arrow, press down the right side of the cassette.

Do not force the cassette into place!  If the cassette is not properly
fitted, the cassette knob will not match up with the ribbon drive
mechanism.  Do not force the cassette down but fit it 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. Replace the Printer cover.

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

PRINT HEAD ADJUSTMENT LEVER

You will have to adjust the print head according to the thickness of the
paper you are going to use.  The print head adjustment lever is located on
the inside right of the Printer.

Position 3 is suitable for one-part paper.  Position 5 or 6 is for multiple
part paper.

MARGIN-SET

1. Be sure the ON LINE lamp is ON.

2. Press and hold the MARGIN (ON/OFF LINE) switch until the ON LINE lamp
   blinks.

3. Press the ---> (LINE FEED) and <---(FORM FEED) switches to move the
   print head to the position you wish to set as a left margin.

4. Press the SET (NLQ DP) switch to set the left margin.

5. Press the ---> switch to move the print head to a desired position for a
   right margin.

6. Press the SET switch to set the right margin.

NOTE: Once the left and right margins are set, you cannot manually reset
      margins wider than the present ones unless the power is turned OFF
      and back ON again.  You can change margins via software.  (Refer to
      chapter 6, "Left and right margins.").
