REPLACING THE RIBBON

Your calculator is shipped with a 2-color ribbon already in place. You do not need to install or change it before you begin using the calculator. When you have been using your calculator for some time, however, the print will gradually become faint, indicating that you should change the ribbon. To change the ribbon, follow these steps.

1. Remove paper roll, tearing paper at rear of calculator. Use the Paper Advance key to feed the remaining paper tape through the printer. Then remove the printer cover.

2. Remove the old ribbon by pulling upward.

3. Install the ribbon spool with the black edge up. Roll from the outside of the full spool and place the first spool on the spindle not engaged by the lever. Thread the new ribbon along the outside of the guides and in front of the print wheels. Switch the lever to the other side and replace the second spool.

4. Rotate the spools to take up any slack. Replace the printer cover and the paper tape.

This section describes the mode switches, data entry keys, and operating keys provided on your calculator. The following terms are used in discussing your calculator’s operation:

• The accumulator is the area of the calculator’s logic that stores a running total of

the results of addition and subtraction operations. It is the “adding machine” portion of the calculator.

• The calculating register is the area of the calculator’s logic where the intermediate

and final results of multiplication, division and percentage calculations are stored. The contents of the calculating register do not affect the accumulator.

• The keyboard register is the area of the calculators logic that stores the value that

will immediately be used in the next calculation.

• The item count register is the area of the calculator’s logic that counts your

entries into the accumulator. Each positive entry is counted as one item. Each Negative entry is subtracted resulting in a net item count. It is also net or gross programmable.

• The memory register is the area of the calculator’s logic that accumulates

amounts you add to or subtract from the memory. Because the memory register is

independent of the accumulator and the calculating register, it retains its value until you clear it with the Memory Total (MT) key.
