Why is the print faint on my Brady Label Maker labels?

  Christopher StoneAug 23, 2025
  If the print on your Brady Label Maker labels is faint, it could be due to the ribbon not advancing correctly or the print energy being too low. To fix this: * Tension the ribbon by rotating the rewind spool (top spool) downward until all slack is removed. * Try another ribbon cartridge. If the issue persists, adjust the print-energy setting.

Why is my Brady Label Maker printing with poor quality?

  Kenneth CummingsAug 28, 2025
  If your Brady Label Maker is producing poor print quality, it could be due to several reasons: * The ribbon and label media are incompatible, or you're using an incorrect label material and ribbon combination. Verify you have the correct ribbon for the label roll. * Dust or adhesives have accumulated on the printhead. * The media wiper is dirty. Clean the printhead or replace the media wiper.

  If your Brady Label Maker displays 'Printer Error Error: 85', the printer has advanced die-cut media but cannot detect the notch. This could be due to a dirty or failing sensor. Check and clear the media path, then reload the media.

  If your Brady Label Maker shows 'Printer Error. Media Jam. Print job canceled.
