Why data cannot be sent from a device plugged into the USB Direct Interface on Brother PT-9800PCN?
- N
  Nicole GriffinSep 12, 2025
  This issue can arise due to two main reasons: * The connected device is incompatible with the PT-9800PCN. If the LED display on the USB Direct Interface flashes red, the device is either incompatible or consumes too much power. * The buffer of the PT-9800PCN is full. If the LED flashes red while connected devices are in use, the buffer may be full. Stop data transmission, wait for the buffered data to process, then unplug and replug the device.

  Jonathan PorterSep 14, 2025
  With a USB connection, when the printer is connected to the computer using a USB cable, the driver for the second printer is automatically installed through Plug and Play. With a Peer-to-Peer connection (PT-9800PCN only) - If one PT-9800PCN is already installed: After the second printer is connected to the LAN, the installer starts up and the printer driver is installed. If multiple printers are to be installed at the same time: When the printers are connected to the LAN, the installer starts up and the printer drivers are installed.
