Installing or Replacing the Ribbon
Cartridge
EPSON recommends using genuine EPSON Ribbon
Cartridges (S015016).
You may need to touch the print head when you
install or replace the ribbon cartridge. If you have just
used the printer, the print head may be hot; let it cool
for a few minutes before proceeding.
1. Make sure the printer is turned off.
2. Open the printer cover.
3. The print head should be in the ribbon replacement
position, as shown below. It should be aligned with the
indentation in the front metal plate.
indentation
If it is not, close the printer cover and turn the printer on to
move the print head to the ribbon replacement position.
Wait a few seconds, then turn the printer off again and open
the printer cover.
Following the steps below while the printer is turned on
can damage the printer.
4. If a used ribbon cartridge is already installed, squeeze the
tabs on each side of the cartridge, and pull the cartridge out
of the printer. Discard the used cartridge.
5. Remove the new ribbon cartridge from its package and turn
the ribbon-tightening knob in the direction of the arrow to
take up any slack in the ribbon.
6. Hold the ribbon cartridge with the exposed ribbon down
and the ribbon-tightening knob facing you, and guide the
ribbon under the print head. Then snap the cartridge into
place so that the tabs on both sides of the cartridge fit into
the notches in the cartridge holder.
7. Hold the ribbon cartridge by its handle and push it firmly
down into position; then press on both ends of the cartridge
to make sure the plastic hooks fit into the slots.
