Top 20 Zebra Z4Mplus Label Printer Questions & Answers

Run a config label and see if you have the same issue. Power it up while holding cancel key is the easiest way to do that.

Sounds like the main board needs replacing. Google '77904m PWB" and you will get a place to buy the part. However you mentioned the IP the Z4m does not have an Ethernet option so make sure that it isn't a Z4m+.

Hi, you can have 3 scenarios here, the print head is faulty, mainboard faulty or darkness set to low, please reset printer to factory default without any lpt/com/usb/network cables connected, turn off and on. try to run Pause test ( turn on printer with pause button pressed for 5 sec and release it)

Sounds like a miss-match on the labels you are loading and the labels it is set up for. You'll have to go into the printer properties and check (and adjust as needed) the label stock selected to make sure they match. Next check the setting on the printer its self for the same for label stock selected. Most likely you're trying to use a label stock different then it was using before.

Do you want to print out settings? Do you want to print a printhead check? Make sure supplies are loaded and the printer is ready to print. Turn off the printer, press X button, turn on the printer while pressing de X button and release the button after aprox 5 seconds from power on. This will print out the configuration page. Do the same but with the Pause button, and you will get a printhead quality test. Note that the test with Pause button it will stop automaticly only after some 10 printed labels . You will need to restart the printer after that, or press the cancel button several times.

I think your printer is set to print on Continuos media. If you use gap labels, you will need to set the printer from the menu on NOT CONTINUOS, then save the setting. In some cases the software or driver is the one who controls this setting. So you will need to change directly in the printer driver. You will find this option on the General tab (click Properties then) and Advanced tab (click on Printing Defaults). There you will have a list with printing parameters like speed, darkness, media type. Adjust as you need to fulfill your request. But first change directly to the printer, accessing the menu from control panel. Also verify if there is no label sticked on the media gap sensor.
