Ribbon Shield Adjustment

Ribbon wrinkling can also be avoided using the ribboon shield mecha-

nism. The ribbon shield mechanism is located on the thermal printhead,

and has two adjustable screws A and B shown below.

If the label printout occurs as in Test label A, turn screw A clockwise. If

the printout occurs as in Test label B, turn screw B clockwise. Turn the

screw half a circle and perform a new test printing. Continue until you

achieve a smooth print quality. Screw adjustment must not exceed two

full turns. In such a case, paper feed may not be smooth and the screws

need to be turned counterclockwise completely and readjusted from start.
