Hi!
To get the TI-8230 to "grab" the adding tape properly, you should follow these steps:
- First, make sure that you have a fresh roll of adding tape inserted correctly into the printer.
- Next, turn on the calculator and press the "feed" button to advance the tape through the printer mechanism.
- Once the tape is advanced, press the "clear" button to reset the calculator to 0.
- Begin entering your calculations, and the calculator will automatically print each entry onto the tape as you go.
- If the tape starts to slip or become loose, gently pull on the tape from the roll to tighten it, and then press the "feed" button to advance it through the printer mechanism again.
- If the tape still won't grab, try using a pencil eraser to clean the rubber roller that feeds the tape through the printer. Gently rub the eraser back and forth across the roller to remove any dust or debris that may be preventing the tape from feeding properly.
By following these steps, you should be able to get the TI-8230 to grab the adding tape properly.
