Figure 1-7. Ribbon cartridge 4. Hold the ribbon cartridge in both hands to position it over the print head (the hole in the ribbon cartridge fits over the finned part of the print head). The short piece of exposed ribbon must go between the print head and the ribbon guide so that the ribbon does not rest directly against the platen (see Figure 1-8). Lower the ribbon cartridge and press the spot marked PUSH to seat the back of the ribbon cartridge first. 5. Once you have positioned the exposed ribbon and secured the back end of the ribbon cartridge, push down on the front of the cartridge to snap it into place. The ribbon cartridge will sit level when it is positioned correctly. 6. Now give the take-up knob several turns to straighten out the ribbon so that it is not wrinkled or twisted. The ribbon should move freely between the print head and the ribbon guide (Figure 1-9). 10
