Removing the Transportation Damper

The printer is protected during
shipping by a transportation damper
that you must remove before you turn
on the printer.
Pull the damper out and remove the
strip of tape from the top of the printer,
as shown in illustration 1.
Note:
Prepare the printer to ship or store with these steps: turn on the printer,
press the RELEASE button, press the FORWARD button, turn off the
printer, and reinstall the transportation damper.

Installing a Ribbon

Use the Epson ERC-27 ribbon cassette. The use of any ribbon cassettes
other than those approved by Epson may damage the printer and will
void the warranty.
1. Turn the printer on using the power switch on the left side.
2. Press the RELEASE button (the RELEASE LED lights). This puts
the printer in the paper release mode.
3. Turn the printer off.
Perform the steps above to make sure the printer is in the paper
release mode before you install or remove a ribbon cassette.
