Why does my ribbon keep tearing?
If the printer’s test chart tears it too, the print is running past the card edge, so reset Position Calibrate to factory default. If only your design tears it, turn on Rotate 180° and add a light border so solid dark color does not run off the card edge. Still tearing? Ease ribbon tension to −3 and check the spool gear for missing teeth. Full guide: Ribbon tearing or sticking.
Should I clean the printer when I change the ribbon?
Yes. Run a cleaning card whenever you change a color ribbon, and any time prints start to look dull. The BB001 cleaning kit has the card, swab and cloth.
