How to improve the cut quality on my Brady Label Maker?
If the cut quality is poor on your Brady Label Maker, it's likely that the cutter needs cleaning. Clean the cutter.
Why does the media shift when printing frames on my Brady BBP31?
If the media shifts when printing frames around a label on your Brady Label Maker, causing a slight misalignment, it's likely due to the media guides not being adjusted correctly.

If you see void areas or lines appearing on the printed text from your Brady Label Maker, it's likely due to ribbon wrinkling. To fix this: * Tension the ribbon by rotating the rewind spool (top spool) downward until all slack is removed. * Try using another ribbon cartridge.
Why is my Brady Label Maker printing with poor quality?
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.

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