Getting Started With The TallyGenicom
®
6600
Operation of the TallyGenicom 6600 is similar to previous
generations of TallyGenicom line matrix printers, such as a 6200 or
6300. However, the 6600 does have differences in panel keys,
operation of the keys, and navigation of the 6600 menu system.
To help TallyGenicom customers quickly understand 6600
operation, the keys are explained and an example is provided
comparing operation on the 6600 versus a 6200.

ribbon tension knob clockwise.
CAUTION Do not turn the ribbon tension knob counterclockwise. This
could damage the ribbon cartridge.
