Opening the front cover
❏ Hook your fingers under the two small tabs on
either side of the front cover and pull upwards to
swing the front cover open.
Removing the print head protector
(LC-240C only)
If your printer is a color model, its print head will be
enclosed in a protector that guards against damage
during shipping. Before using the printer, you must
remove the print head protector as shown in the
following illustration.
About ribbon cartridges
The type of ribbon cartridge that comes with your
printer depends on whether it is a color printer or a
monochrome printer. Monochrome printer models
come with a monochrome ribbon cartridge with a
built-in print head shield, while color printer models
come with a color cartridge without a print head
shield (this is because the color printer has its own
print head shield). In addition, monochrome ribbon
cartridges for use on a color printer model are
available as an option.
Note:
You can completely remove the front cover from the
printer. However, we recommend that you normally
leave it in place. The cover protects against objects
getting into the printer, and it cuts down on printer
noise.
