Top 20 Zebra Z4Mplus Label Printer - Page 6 Questions & Answers

Sounds like you may have it set for "peel-off" mode instead of "tear-off" mode.

check the label margins, and label dimensions, and spacing , normaly is these problem, or is a printer driver problem, try reinstall driver

Is the printer set for label taken, if it is then it is waiting for the sensor to see the label is gone before printing the next one. Apart from that, check the settings in the driver and make sure it is all set correctly

If this is a wireless printer then all you need to do is set an address reservation on your router and then set up a fixed IP port on your printer driver.

First: Install the printer driver as a normal USB printer by connecting the cable during the install process dont use the wizard if you can help it.

Second : Find your MAC address for the printer (all types of Network Cards MUST have one) this will either be in the LCD control panel or on the bottom of the printer on a label and set this in your admin panel of your router to say 192.168.0.10 for example. You can normally enter this using 192.168.0.1 but all routers are different. Check here for your make and model http://www.routerpasswords.com/

Last : Goto the printer driver properties for the USB printer you have just install click the port tab and click add standard IP port as shown below, then disconnect the USB lead this is only required to make sure the correct inf file is used on the driver install.



Thats is. !!!

I've had this problem as well. It occurred because somehow the Media Type was set to non-continuous with continuous media loaded.Simply changed the setting back to continuous and everything was fine.

have you installed all the drivers correctly
and are you printing using the software that came with the printer or are you using word

if you are using word change the diamentions of the sheet when you go to print

drop the darkness to low level, check if the format have to much black lines, mins to much hit on the same place. possible need to change the format.
w.c.s the printhead, if not original from zebra, can do that, need to replace.

check if seting from LABEL TOP is on 0000, check the driver as well.

Clean the print head. If half has got gummy from labels, it will not be able to print. You will need to use a solvent for the gummy adhesive... possibly Toluol... HOWEVER be very careful to keep that off ANY plastic parts.

You have a bad logic bd and it needs to be replaced our repaired.

please kindly check the ribbon and label... make it sure that it fits exactly or properly or correctly fits the said consumables... if its not work check the settings...

run calibration ribbon and media, and save. reset the printer and run Sensor profile.

you need to describe what is the error message, then look into the manual. the easy way is try to set the printer back to default setting

Disconnect the serial/parallel cable from the printer, it sounds like the print server itself is resending the label rather than the printer storing it in memory. Power cycle the printer after removing the cable(s) and you should be all set - but you may have to manually purge the job from the print server before reconnecting the cable.

faulty Logic Board, need to be replace.

In your label software there should be a setting option for print darkness (I assume it adjusts the head temperature) In ours (bartender) you can get to it when you select 'print' and a window appears with a 'documents properties' button. Click on this and select options and a darkness bar appears which you can adjust. You may also need to slow the label print speed if the darkness adjustment is not enough. I suspect it isn't in the printers best interest to run the print head at maximum darkness/heat so a sensible balance of darkness and print speed is best.
Another, less likely, possibility is an incompatability between the label material or surface finish, and the ribbon type. We did have a problem once whem Homebase changed their price label design and we had to test a load of other ribbon types until we got one that did the job. A chat with the label or ribbon supplier is always usefull, they sent us several sample bits to test.

press the button untill flash 2 times

check the darkness, check if the labels you use need to print with ribbon (Termal Transfer)

The first mainboard of Z4Mplus falls short of this error and need replacement.

check the settings of your label printer.
