How to install Printronix Original Extended Yield Dot Matrix Ribbon Cartridge - Black - 6 Pack
- Power down the printer and unplug it before beginning any maintenance to ensure safety and prevent damage to internal components.
- Open the printer cover to access the cartridge housing. Locate the old ribbon cartridge and prepare to remove it by gently releasing any locking tabs or guides.

- Unpack the new Printronix Original Extended Yield ribbon cartridge and align it with the printer’s ribbon guides. Seat the cartridge firmly so the ribbon feeds evenly through the printhead area without rubbing against edges.
- Close the printer cover securely and plug the printer back in. Run a quick test print to confirm that characters are sharp, alignment is correct, and there are no smudges or misfeeds. If necessary, feed a few blank forms to ensure the ribbon is fully settled in the paper path before resuming normal operation.
