Setting Up a New Ribbon
The New Ribbon parameter allows you to reset the ribbon life after replacing
a worn ribbon. Also follow this procedure when first setting up
RibbonMinder parameters. Note that it may be necessary to replace ribbons
before the ink has been depleted. This may occur with ribbons that have been
snagged, folded, or otherwise damaged.
NOTE: If the message display indicates the need to install a new ribbon and
your print job is one page short of completion, press ON LINE to
print the last page before performing this procedure. Otherwise, you
may continue your print job at the end of this procedure.
