You can try this: on the S4M, you can press the Menu key to go into setup mode. Under password level 3 parameters,there is a setting for ribbon which by default is set to Yes thermal trans. If you set it to No for direct thermal mode, this will in effect turn off the ribbon sensor. The printer won't stop now if it runs out of ribbon but usually you are there when printing to see that the ribbon is running out.
On other Zebras, you can turn down the sensitivity of the RIBBON LED sensor but the S4M doesn't have that setting.
See if that helps.
