tabs on either side of the ribbon cassette into the two slots inside the
printer. Then, press the lower half of the cassette inward to a vertical

7. Rotate the knob on the cassette counterclockwise so that the ribbon
slides under the head.
8. Set the adjustment lever to position 1. Position 1 is for thin paper. You
may need to set the adjustment lever to another position, if you are
using a thick paper.
9. Close the printer cover.
Important!
Printing that is poor quality or too light is almost always due to a
ribbon that is simply worn out or “used up.” If you experience
problems with print quality, check the condition of the ribbon. If the
black part looks gray and well-worn, replace the ribbon with a new
one.
