Why is my HellermannTyton Printer showing 'Colour ribbon winding'?
The colour ribbon winding error can occur if the determined unwinding direction of the colour ribbon does not match the configuration setting, meaning the colour ribbon was inserted upside down; in this case, clean the printhead and insert the colour ribbon correctly. It can also happen if the configuration setting does not match the utilized colour ribbon, so adjust the configuration setting.
Why is the colour ribbon wrinkled in my HellermannTyton TT431 Printer?
The colour ribbon may be wrinkled because the colour ribbon guide roll is not adjusted, so adjust the colour ribbon feed. Also, the colour ribbon may be too wide, so use a colour ribbon that is only slightly wider than the material.
What to do if my HellermannTyton TT431 Printer has vertical white lines in the print image?
If you observe vertical white lines, this could be due to a dirty printhead, so clean the printhead. Alternatively, the printhead may be defective, and you may need to replace it.
Why is the barcode too big on my HellermannTyton TT431?
The barcode is too big for the allocated print area of the material. Reduce the size of the barcode or move it.
Why the device transports the material, but not the colour ribbon in my HellermannTyton TT431?
The colour ribbon is not properly inserted, so check and, if necessary, correct the feed path of the colour ribbon and the orientation of the coated side. It also might be unsuitable combination of materials and colour ribbon, so use a different colour ribbon type or brand.
What to do if my HellermannTyton Printer says 'Label too thick'?
If the cutter is unable to cut the material but is able to return into its home position, press Cancel and change the material.
What to do if my HellermannTyton Printer displays 'Device not conn.'?
If the printer displays 'Device not conn.', the programming addresses a non-existent device. Connect the optional device or correct the programming.
What to do if my HellermannTyton TT431 Printer shows 'Printhead folded down'?
If the printhead is not locked, it can cause this error. Lock the printhead.
What to do if my HellermannTyton Printer shows 'Printhead too hot'?
If the printhead is too hot, the print job will continue automatically after a pause. However, if this issue recurs repeatedly, reduce the heat level or the print speed in the software.
