For Use on Monroe Classic

Changing the Ribbon

Use the Monroe P65M Ribbon

1. Remove excess paper tape.

2. Remove the printer cover. (Note how ribbon

feeds from outside of spools, around guides

and between print wheels and platen, black

band up.)

3. Lift out spool that is not engaged by lever;

then move lever aside and lift out other spool.

4. Holding new spools over spindles with black

band up and exposed portion of ribbon on side

nearest print wheels, place one spool on

spindle not engaged by lever. Rotate spools to

be sure its pins engage in spindle gear.

5. Thread ribbon around guides and between

print wheels and platen.

6. Install other spool and rotate to engage

spindle gear and also to take up slack in

ribbon.

7. Replace printer cover.

Installing Paper Tape

To ensure ease of installation, read the instructions

completely before installing a new paper roll. Then

follow the instructions step-by-step.

1. Tear off excess paper at the tear-off knife.

2. To remove cover, place thumbs on serrated

surfaces located on each side of the cover.

Pressing down with your thumbs, slide the top

cover toward the back of the calculator. Once

the cover has been pushed back approximately

1”, lift the cover off.

3. Lift up and remove old paper roll from the

paper roll holders. Tear off paper between the

used paper roll and the printer. Pull remaining

paper through the printer by continuously

lifting the leading edge (nearest display).

4. With the leading edge of the new paper roll,

feeding from the bottom, place the new roll

into position between the two flexible paper

roll holders.

5. Feed the paper into the rear of the printer

mechanism until it meets resistance

(approximately 1 to 1.5 inches). Depress the

paper advance button until the paper extends

several inches beyond the printer mechanism.

6. Feed the paper through the opening of the

tear-off knife and lay top cover flat on the

calculator leaving a 1” overhang at the back

of the top cover. Apply a firm downward

and forward pressure, slide the top cover

forward until it snaps into position.

7. Tear off any excess paper.
