Zebra 110Xi III Plus Thermal Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Came to this site with the same problem, after observing the dam thing I fixed myself, my printer is a Zebra ZD220, the problem indicates some sort of sensor problem, my was simple someone mess the adjustable tab, must align with the one at the top cover, the top cover as two little LED's, they must align with this sensor in the image anexed.

I think you will also need to change the settings in the menu. Hold the l/h arrow key when powering on to access the menu. then change to correct p/h.

You can contact your Internet Service Provider[ISP] and request them to connect it.They will help you.If you need to check your Internet IP address visit the site IP-Details.com and get it.

Could be bad ribbon

if it is the least setting for print head then you may need to dry ribbon by putting in sunshine for few hours

If it is working , then it is nothing to worry about. If it is not printing, then it does not see the print head. Check the print head cables are securely connected.

Try adjusting your printhead. If that doesn't work you might need to replace.

Please contact me if you have any question or if you come across needing a printhead for your unit.

I carry all parts for that printer in stock .

Thanks

The red light is most likely indicating that the device is not connected to the network. Try rebooting the router/hub/etc. by disconnecting the power cord for 30 sec. and unplugging all wires. Then hook everything back up.

recalibrate the printer in the set up.
Don't just do a quick cal from the front panel.
Make sure your driver is the correct dpi zebra driver, either zebra or my preferred seagull scientific.
by .5 of the label, do you mean width or heigth.
If it is heigth, check to make sure you are set for top of print correctly. Also you will have to back feed for a label that short.

change the IP to estactic, and make your changes.
on the printserver is a small withe button, press for 3 secounds, He going to print a network configuration, check that.

check on the printer if the resolution change 150-300 or 300-600, the correct resolition is 200 dpi, if you have 200 dpi printhead

Please run manual calibration
(take 2 or 3 labels and load the labels under the printhead and sensors, close printhead, press enter,
if ask for "take the ribbon," just open the print head, take the ribbon out from the sensors, close printhead, enter.
then if ask for load media, just put everything like you normaly setup the printer and press enter. The printer gona run the calibratio, Please close the door case, this can afect the sensors data.
save
tur off the printer and back on again.
run sensor profine. check if sensor check the gap (smal mountan )

You can run the manual calibration from the menu , just follow the directions. Also run the sensor profile to print out the digital representation of the media sensor .If you are using standard label stock this should tell you if the transmissive sensor is good. Depends on the media, follow the users manual if different media requirements.

What do you mean labels that ask sensor type Mark? Describe the type of media.

Sir,
Our printer 1410 is not working properly last 2 months because the when printer cable connect the all printers buttions lights are working, but not functioning. my friend said to me our printers logic board are not functioning because the moustiure creat to our logic board, so give me suggestion to next.

The printer thinks it is out of ribbon. If the condition exists and there is still ribbon in the printer, then try pressing the CALIBRATE key to have the printer readjust for the label / ribbon. If that does not help then press the SETUP key, press PREVIOUS until you see a setting called RIBBON LED. Make sure there is a value there - should be somewhere around 30-40. If it is above 100, then lower the setting to 30. Then press SETUP again and press SAVE for a permanent save.

Hope that helps !

It is very important that the media sensors are correctly algined for the labels to advance properly. See my tip on how to make sure the sensors are in the correct position: http://www.fixya.com/support/r4500516-locate_align_media_sensors_zebra_xi

There is no minimum lenght specified in the manual for this model. There are maximums however.

The manual can be obtained from here:

Hope this helps,

Sounds like the printer is not getting the proper calibration on the label being used. After putting printer in pause and pressing calibrate button, a good calibration is indicated by the labels feeding, a slight hesitation, and the feeding a couple of more labels at a faster speed. If the labels just feed and then stop, that is not a good calibration. Then you have to make sure the top and bottom media sensor are properly aligned.
