Troubleshooting

Print is faint or missing in areas

Ensure the ribbon is installed correctly and properly tensioned. Check if the printhead is clean and free of debris. Verify that the correct media and ribbon combination is being used.

Ribbon breaks during printing

Check for any obstructions or rough edges within the printer path. Ensure the ribbon is not too tight or too loose. Verify that the printhead is not damaged.

Barcode is not scannable

Clean the printhead thoroughly. Adjust print darkness and speed settings. Ensure you are using recommended media for optimal scannability. Print a test label and scan it before mass production.

Ribbon is wrinkled or creased

This can be caused by improper installation or storage. Ensure the ribbon is loaded flat and without tension before printing. Store ribbons properly to avoid creasing.
