Exit Program Mode; Replacing The Ribbon - Amano TCX-21 Operation Manual

Exit Program Mode

Press the PROGRAM button and the display will show the current date.
The clock hands will reset to the current time.
Note: The TCX-21 uses a Lithium battery to maintain the user settings incase of
a power failure. If a power failure occurs and the Lithium battery is dead,
the time clock settings may revert to default settings (i.e., DST Begin and
End dates may change).

Replacing the Ribbon

To Remove:
1. Remove the cover.
2. Pull the two white release
tabs upward and remove
the ribbon cassette.
To Insert:
1. If the print mechanism is
down and a piece of paper
cannot be inserted, press
the RESET button to move
the carriage up. This will
make the ribbon installation
easier.
2. Insert the ribbon cassette. Be sure to mount the ribbon between
the printer head and ribbon guide as arrows illustrate.
3. Turn the knob on the cassette clockwise one turn to take up any
slack in the ribbon.
4. Replace the cover and check the print quality to confirm that you
have installed the ribbon correctly.
