Ernest,
If you haven't updated the firmware and print drivers to the latest version from the blog post, please do that. Many times that will solve the issue.
If that update does not help, you may need specific technical help. Please email or call safecard for a technical representative to assist you with your specific printer.
I've just installed a new ribbon, and it's still saying that the ribbon is empty.
Please help.
Roy,
The first step we would suggest would be to calibrate the ribbon sensor. This is done in the print driver for this printer. Go to your printer and faxes folder. Right click on your CIM printer. Chose printing preferences. On the far right, look for a tab labeled calibrate. Halfway down the page is a button that says sensors. Click that button and follow the instructions on the screen.
If this does not solve your problem, make sure that the ribbon setting in the print driver is the same setting as the ribbon installed in the printer. This can be checked under the device options tab.
If this fails, your printer probably has a bad ribbon sensor. A repair may be needed.
