How to fix a paper jam in my TSC TDP-225?
To address a paper jam in your TSC Barcode Reader, calibrate the gap/black mark sensor. Ensure the label size is correctly set in your labeling software. Also, check for and remove any labels stuck inside the printer mechanism near the sensor area.
What to do if my TSC TDP-225 Barcode Reader is not printing?
If your TSC Barcode Reader is not printing, check if the interface cable is securely connected. If using a serial port, ensure the cable is pin-to-pin connected; if not, replace it. Verify that the serial port settings are consistent between the host and the printer, and reset if necessary. Confirm that the correct printer port is selected in the Windows driver. If using Ethernet, ensure the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway are properly configured.
Why is my TSC TDP-225's print quality poor?
To resolve poor print quality on your TSC Barcode Reader, ensure the top cover is completely closed and latched properly. Verify that the correct 24V DC power supply is connected. Reload the supply correctly. Clean the print head if there's dust or adhesive accumulation. Adjust the print density and print speed. Finally, run a printer self-test to check the print head test pattern for any missing dots.
Why is my TSC Label Maker not printing?
If your TSC Label Maker isn't printing, several factors could be the cause. Ensure the interface cable is securely connected. If using a serial port, the cable's pin configuration must be pin-to-pin; if it is not, replace the cable. Also, verify that the serial port settings are consistent between your host and the printer, and that the correct printer port is selected in the Windows driver. For Ethernet connections, confirm that the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway are properly configured.
How to resolve a 'Cutter Error' on my TSC Label Maker?
If your TSC Label Maker displays 'Cutter Error', it could be due to several reasons. First, check for a cutter jam and remove any jammed labels. If there is no cutter installed on the printer, ensure that the media thickness is equal to or less than 0.19mm. If the cutter or cutter driver circuit board is damaged, replace the affected component.
What does 'Take Label' mean on my TSC Label Maker and how do I resolve it?
If your TSC Label Maker displays 'Take Label', and the peeler function is enabled, take the label away to print the next one, especially if a peeler module is installed. If the peeler module is installed and the label has been removed but the message remains, check if the peeler module connector is properly connected to the main board. If no peeler module is installed, disable the peeler function.
How to fix 'Out of Mem' error on my TSC Label Maker?
If your TSC Label Maker shows 'Out of Mem', it means the space of FLASH/DRAM or MicroSD card is full. Delete unused files in the FLASH/DRAM or MicroSD card to free up space.
How to resume printing on a paused TSC Label Maker?
If your TSC Label Maker is paused, press the FEED button to resume printing.
What does 'Head Open' mean on my TSC Label Maker?
If the TSC Label Maker displays 'Head Open', it means the printer top cover is open. Please close the top cover.
What to do if my TSC Label Maker says 'No Paper'?
If your TSC Label Maker displays 'No Paper', it could be due to a few reasons. You might be running out of labels, so try supplying a new label roll. Alternatively, the label roll may be installed incorrectly; refer to the user’s manual for the correct reinstallation steps. It's also possible that the gap/black mark sensor needs calibration.
