Why is the ribbon tearing when it feeds?
Possible ribbon tear causes are:
1. Your Heat setting (Printhead temp) is too high - normal is about 10
2. You have something stuck on one of the surfaces the ribbon is contacting, i.e. a piece of label.
3. Something is out of place that is contacting the ribbon, i.e. a loose spring or wire.
4. Something is bent and/or out of alignment - look for where the ribbon starts tearing and examine that area carefully.
