Step-By-Step Instructions To Load Ribbon and Media on a Zebra ZT230
To load ribbon and media on a Zebra ZT230 industrial barcode printer, you can try these steps:
Load the ribbon – Put an empty core on the ribbon take-up spindle and push it back. Then, place a ribbon roll on the ribbon supply spindle with the loose end facing down on the right side. Push the roll back as far as it can go, slide the ribbon under the black guide, and under the print mechanism. Wind the ribbon over the core and turn the spindle to the right to remove any slack. Finally, close the print head by rotating the gold lever down.
Load the media – Pull the media guide out, slide the media in from the side, and make sure it goes under the print head assembly and dancer. You should have about 6–8 in (15–20 cm) of media out in front of the printer. Push the media guide back until it almost touches the media, and slide the media sensor so the red dot is in the center of the media. Then, close the print head and press Pause to enable printing.
