How to fix poor print quality on Brother E850TKW?
- JJohn HensonSep 2, 2025
If your Brother Label Maker is printing labels or tubes incorrectly, or the print quality is poor (faint or smudged), try these steps: remove and reinstall the tape or ribbon cassette, pressing firmly until it locks. Clean a dirty label print head with a dry cotton swab or optional cleaning cassette. For poor character quality, wipe the label roller with a dry cotton swab. Clean a dirty tube print head with a dry cotton swab and replace a dirty tube or tube cleaner. Consider replacing worn rollers. You can also adjust the printing speed, feeding pressure, or printing density settings.
