What to do if my TSC Label Maker shows an error?
If your TSC Label Maker displays an 'Error' message, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check if you are out of labels or ribbon. If so, load a new roll of labels or ribbon, following the loading instructions, and then press the FEED button to resume printing. If the error persists, the printer settings might be incorrect. In this case, initialize the printer using the 'Power on Utility' or 'Diagnostic Tool'.
How to troubleshoot a paper jam in my TSC Label Maker?
If the TSC Label Maker is experiencing a paper jam, there are several potential causes. First, the gap/black mark sensor sensitivity might not be set properly; try calibrating the sensor. Second, ensure that the label size is correctly set in your labeling software or program to match the installed paper. Lastly, check for any labels stuck inside the printer mechanism near the sensor area and remove them.
Why is my TSC Label Maker producing poor print quality?
If your TSC Label Maker is producing poor print quality, ensure that the top cover is completely closed and that both the right and left side levers are properly latched. Check that the correct 24V DC power supply is connected to the printer. Reload the supply and verify it's loaded correctly. Finally, inspect the print head for any accumulated dust or adhesives and clean it if necessary.
