If your TSC Barcode Reader is not printing, first, reconnect the interface cable or try a new one to ensure a secure connection.

Also, check that the serial port settings on both the host and the printer are consistent, with the default baud rate set to 9600, n, 8, 1. In the Windows driver, confirm that the correct printer port is selected. For Ethernet connections, ensure the Ethernet RJ-45 connector's green LED is lit and the amber LED is blinking. Check if the printer obtains an IP address in DHCP mode or if the static IP address is correctly configured. Allow a few seconds for the printer to establish communication with the server before rechecking the IP address settings.
