How to use

To install the ribbon, first ensure your printer is powered off and the print head has cooled down. Open the printer cover and locate the existing ribbon cartridge. Carefully remove the old cartridge by releasing the locking mechanism. Insert the new Pelikan 1 Nylon ribbon into the designated slot, ensuring it is properly seated and the ribbon fabric is positioned correctly between the print head and the platen. Gently turn the manual feed knob on the cartridge to take up any slack in the ribbon before closing the printer cover.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify your printer model matches the compatibility list
• Ensure your printer uses a dot matrix or impact printing mechanism
• Check the current ribbon cartridge installation method for your specific printer model

Usage recommendations: For optimal print quality and to extend the lifespan of your printer's print head, replace the ribbon as soon as the text begins to appear faint. Store unused ribbons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain ink freshness.
