• Make certain that you are using the right type of ribbon for the printer. The Century Falcon 4D Plus uses a flat print head. Consequently a ribbon designed specifically for flat print heads should be employed. In addition, the Falcon 4D Plus requires that the ribbon be wound ‘coated side out’. • Check to be sure that the ribbon spindles are fully engaged with the gears on the left side of the print block, and that the right side of each spindle is locked into position. • Make sure that your software and/or driver parameters are set for thermal transfer printing. If you are not using ribbon: • Make sure that your software and/or driver parameters are set for direct thermal printing.
