Why is my TSC Barcode Reader printing with poor quality?
Poor print quality may be caused by several factors. Try cleaning the thermal print head or adjusting the print density setting. Ensure that the ribbon and media are compatible and that the media thickness is within the specified range. Also, check if the correct power supply is connected to the printer.
What to do if TSC TTP-244 ON-LINE indicator is off and ERR. indicator is on?
If the printer beeps once, this indicates a gap sensor problem. Calibrate the gap sensor or set the paper length correctly in the labeling software/program, and ensure the paper is installed correctly. If the printer beeps twice, it indicates a ribbon sensor problem. Ensure that an outside wound ribbon is used, the ribbon is threaded correctly, and a paper core is installed on the ribbon take-up spindle. You may also need to calibrate the sensitivity of the gap sensor.
How to fix TSC TTP-244 Barcode Reader when the ribbon does not advance or rewind?
Ensure the media and ribbon are installed, and the print head mechanism is engaged before turning on the printer. Verify that the black ribbon spindle is installed in the correct direction. Also, check the "Media settings method" in the driver to confirm it is not set to direct thermal mode.
What to do if the TSC Barcode Reader power indicator does not illuminate?
First, check the power cord to ensure it is properly connected. Also, verify if the LED on the power supply is illuminated; if not, the power supply might be damaged. Finally, make sure the correct power supply is connected to the printer.
