CAUTION! 
To separate the printed 
media from the media roll in 
batch mode, be sure to tear 
off the media at the Media 
Outlet or cut the media past 
the Strip Plate.  If you tear 
off the media at the Print 
Head by mistake, be sure to 
feed one label (10 mm or 
more) with the FEED Button 
prior to  a next issue.  Failure 
to do this may cause a paper

NOTES : 
1.  When issuing labels without  removing them from the backing 
paper, it is not necessary to pass 
the media through the Strip Block.  
2.  When the media is correctly set,  the backing paper is supposed to 
be pinched by the Platen and the 
Strip Feed Roller as shown below. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
3.  If the peel-off issue is performed  under intense light, the strip sensor 
may not correctly detect the 
presence of a printed label on the 
strip shaft.  In this case, reduce the 
intensity of the light or fit the 
Shade Plate to the Strip Block as 
shown in the figure.

backing paper each time a label is printed.  
 
•  How to set the media 
When issuing labels in the strip mode, set the label in the following 
procedure: 
 
1.  Load the media as described on the previous pages.   
2.
  Open the Strip Block by pulling it out. 

 
 
 
3.  Remove enough labels from the leading edge of the media to leave 20 
cm of backing paper free, and insert the top edge of the backing paper 
into the media slot in the Strip Block.

How to Load Fanfold Paper Stock 
1.   Place the fanfold paper stock on the rear of the printer, and insert the 
leading edge of the paper into the Fanfold Paper Slot.   
 
  
2.  Refer to the previous pages to  feed the fanfold paper through the 
printer until it extends past the media outlet.  
 
 
 
 
CAUTION! 
1.  Be sure to cut the backing 
paper of the label.  Cutting 
labels will cause the glue to 
stick to the cutter which may 
affect the cutter quality and 
shorten the cutter life.  
2.  Use of tag paper of which 
thickness exceeds the specified 
value may affect the cutter life.  
HAZARDOUS MOVING PARTS

2.8  Loading the Ribbon 
 
 
 
 
 When you use normal media, it is necessary to load a ribbon. 
Follow the procedure below to load a ribbon properly.  
 
1.   Press down the Top Cover Release Button to unlock the Top Cover, 
then fully open the Top Cover. 
 
 
 
 
2.  Fit the core of the Ribbon Supply Roll into both the Spring Guide 
Wheel and the Guide Wheel (Supply side).  
 
  (1) Push the right side of the core of the Ribbon Supply Roll against the 
Spring Guide Wheel and fit th e wheel into the core.  
 
 
 
  (2) Fit the left side of the core of the Ribbon Supply Roll to the Guide Wheel, 
aligning the notch of the ribbon core with the protrusion of the Guide 
Wheel.  
 
 
 
Hold the ribbon firmly while loading it, as it is easily loosened or 
unrolled.  
 
WARNING! 
1.  Do not touch any moving 
parts.  To reduce the risk 
of fingers, jewellery, 
clothing, etc. being drawn 
into the moving parts, be 
sure to load the media 
once the printer has 
stopped moving 
completely.  
2.  To avoid injury, be careful  not to trap your fingers 
while opening or closing 
the cover.  
CAUTION! 
Be careful not to touch the 
Print Head Element when 
opening the Top Cover.  
Failure to do this may cause 
missing dots by static 
electricity or other print quality 
problems.

NOTES: 
1.  Do not load a ribbon when  using direct thermal media. 
Doing so may damage the 
print head or stained with 
melted ribbon, which requires 
a replacement of the print 
head.  
2.  Be sure to load the ribbon so  that the ink side contacts with 
the print side of the media.  If 
the ribbon is loaded inside 
out, nothing can be printed, 
and eventually the print head 
will need to be replaced.   
3.  The Figure shows how to  distinguish between used and 
unused sides of a halfway-
used ribbon.   
4.  As the ribbon is very thin, do  not pull the ribbon strongly.  
Doing so may cause the 
ribbon to be stretched or 
broken.
