Setting method

1. Check the kind of ribbon used and set the ribbon winding

selection switch. This is the method for installing an outside
wound ribbon.

This switch allows selection of inside-wound ribbons (also known as "ink
in") and outside wound ribbons ("ink out"). Remember, the inked surface
should be facing AWAY from the printhead surface!

2. Place the attached ribbon and paper core separately on one of

the two attached ribbon holders. Insert the two ribbon holders
into the ribbon and paper cores ensuring that they are pushed
in all the way.
