Solution
Re-open print head and make
sure it closes tightly.
When print head temperature
drops to the normal
temperature range, printer will
go back to the standby mode.
Make sure the printer is in the
Direct Thermal mode.
Replace with new ribbon roll.
Make sure the movable sensor
mark is at the correct position,
if the sensor is still unable to
detect paper, and then go
through Auto Sensing again.
Replace with new label roll.
Possible causes: card tags or
paper fall into the gap behind
the platen roller, can't find
label gap/black mark, black
mark paper out. Please
adjust according to actual
usage.
Check printer commands,
possible value missing or
errors.
Delete unnecessary data in
the memory or purchase
extended memory (options).
Use "~X4" command to print
out all the files, then check
whether the file exist and the
names are correct.
Change the file name and
download again.
