Why is my TSC MH361T printing with poor quality?
Poor print quality on your TSC Barcode Reader can occur due to several reasons. The ribbon and media might be loaded incorrectly, there could be dust or adhesive on the print head, the print density or speed might not be set properly, the printhead element could be damaged, the ribbon and media might be incompatible, or the printhead pressure might not be set properly. Reload the supply, clean the print head and platen roller, adjust the print density and print speed. Run a printer self-test to check the print head test pattern for missing dots. Change to proper ribbon or label media. Adjust the printhead pressure adjustment knob and ensure the print carriage is closed properly.
