Why is the print quality poor on my Kroy K4452 Barcode Reader?

  Denise RussellAug 13, 2025
  Poor print quality on your Kroy Barcode Reader can stem from several causes. First, ensure the top cover is completely closed and that both the right and left levers are properly latched. Another potential cause is incorrect loading of supplies, so try reloading them. Incompatibility between the ribbon and media can also lead to poor print quality; consider changing the ribbon or label combination. Finally, accumulated dust or adhesives on the print head can be the culprit; cleaning the print head may resolve the issue.

  If your Kroy Barcode Reader is not printing, there are several potential reasons. Ensure the interface cable is securely connected to the interface connector by reconnecting it. If using a serial port cable, it must be pin-to-pin connected; replace it if it isn't. The serial port settings between the host and printer must be consistent, so reset them if needed. Also, verify that the correct printer port is selected in the Windows driver. Lastly, if using Ethernet, confirm that the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway are properly configured.
