Ribbon Shield Installation in DP8 &
DP9
Ribbon shield installation is easy, but you have to pay
attention
Ribbon shields keep copy streak free. They can, however, cause problems if they
are worn or bent during installation. The DP8 and DP9 were designed to leave the
ribbon shield in the printer while ribbons are replaced. If you need to remove a
ribbon shield, pull it out to the right as shown below.

Before reinstalling shield, check that the shield face is
perpendicular to the shield base or back |
