What to do if the SATO Label Maker's POWER LED is not on?
If the POWER LED is not illuminated, consider the following: * Check that the AC power cable is properly connected to both the printer and the AC outlet. * The main power fuse may be defective; replace the fuse. * The power supply itself might be defective; test the power supply and replace it if necessary.
Why is the RIBBON LED on my SATO Label Maker on?
The RIBBON LED may illuminate due to: * An empty ribbon supply roll; replenish the ribbon supply. * A ribbon sensor that is out of alignment; realign the ribbon sensor. * A blocked ribbon sensor; clean the ribbon sensor. * The absence of a cardboard core on the ribbon rewind; use a cardboard core on the ribbon rewind.
Why is there no ribbon movement in my SATO Label Maker?
Lack of ribbon movement can stem from: * Using an incorrect ribbon core size; use genuine SATO ribbons. * A loose platen drive belt; adjust or replace the belt. * No +24 volt output; test the power supply and replace if required. * Loose service screws on the rewind pulley; tighten the service screws. * Damaged electronics; replace the circuit board.
What to do if my SATO Label Maker has no printed image?
If your SATO Label Maker is not printing any image, check these: * Ensure the print head is properly connected by verifying the print head connector is fully seated at the head and PCB. * Make sure the ribbon is not upside down; use genuine SATO ribbons. * Verify there is +24 volt output by testing the power supply and replacing it if required.
