is less than full-width (4 inches or 102 mm), adjust the position of the
printhead balance arm so that the printhead is correctly pressured
against the media.

3 Turn the printhead lift lever counterclockwise to raise the printhead.
4 Press down on the blue part of the printhead balance bar and move
it:
• outward for wider media.
• inward for narrower media.
5 Close the printhead and load the ribbon.
6 Test and readjust the printhead balance if necessary.
7 Close the media cover.
