Tape cassettes are available in a variety of types,
colors and sizes, enabling you to make distinctive
color-coded and stylized labels. Label cassettes are
also available for expanded addressing and filing
capabilities. The 9600Ki has been designed to make
changing cassettes quick and easy.
To change cassettes:
Press
the cover release button (shown to the right). Lift
open the tape compartment cover.
If
a tape cassette is already installed and you wish
to replace it, remove it by pulling it straight up
and out of the tape compartment.
If
the ink ribbon is loose in the tape cassette to be
installed, use your finger (shown to the right) to
wind the toothed wheel in the direction of the arrow
on the cassette until there is no slack in the ribbon.
Also, make sure the end of the tape feeds under
the tape guides.
| NOTE |
|
 For
stamp and label cassettes, tightening the ink
ribbon does not apply, since they do not have
ink ribbons.
If
you are using a new tape cassette provided with
a stopper, be sure to remove the stopper.

Insert
the tape cassette firmly into the tape compartment (show
to the right), making sure the entire back of the cassette
touches the bottom of the compartment.
Close
the compartment cover. If the 9600Ki is off, press
the on/off button to turn the 9600Ki on. The width
of the currently installed tape is shown by the tape
width indicator on the left edge of the display. It
is circled in red, and indicating a one inch width
tape, in the image below.
Press
the Feed & Cut button once to remove any slack
in the tape and cut off the excess.
