SOURCE: Zebra 4M Plus printer keeps printing same label

Hi there
You can try see if this may do it.

Go to Start / Run and type in "services.msc" without quotation marks, then press Enter or click OK.

In the window that opens (Services) look for "Print Spooler" on the right

Right-click "Print Spooler" and select "Properties".

Click on the "Recovery" tab and change all 3 drop-down boxes to "Restart The Service".

Make sure the 2 text boxes underneath say "1" in them.

Click Ok until you are back at the Services window, close it and you're good to go.

Go back into the properties of the "Print Spooler" tab and be sure to click Start to restart the Print Spooler service and it will restart the service immediately.

The Print spooler depends on the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service. Is this service disabled? Go to services.msc look for RPC. Check state: Automatic

Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

SOURCE: Label double print

It's possible that the printer did not get a good calibration on the size of the label. There's an optic sensor looking for the gaps in the labels. A test would be to turn the printer off and back on again. When it is ready, just press the feed key. If one label advances then the printer had a good read on the label size. The idea is to see if the printer works ok by itself first.

Now print a label - if you get two labels then you have to look at the software / printer driver as the cause. The printer will only do what it's told to do.

Hope that helps !

Zebra S400 does not keep the calibration settings. After calibrating or restoring factory settings (like described in the manual) first label prints OK (using BarTender software) then it's off again. Same...

After you calibrate the printer. Press feed a few times. If it feeds a single label each time, then the calibration was successful.Power off and on while holding the cancel button. (config printout). Keep config for reference. Send label print from computer. If it does not work, then check that the printer driver matches the config printout. The computer printer driver will change and overide the settings in the printer

I have a Z4M plus and it only prints half of the label. One half is well printed and the other half is blank. please help

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.

My printer display keep showing " Warning, Ribbon in", cannot print multiple label at a time

i have the same problem , but my printer is ZEBRA S4M ZPL

my solution is:

in your barcode software: change printer settings: 1 and 2

1 . in media setting : change media type --> Thermal transfer
2. in documents options , configuration --> use printer settings

Printer skipping labels

Your labels are narrow, and might not be aligned beneath the gap sensor.

Remove the cover and make sure the labels are loaded all the way to the left (toward the inside wall of the printer.) There's a "label Guide" that keeps the labels from wandering to the right. There are two thumbscrews beneath the label path. The thumbscrew toward the back of the printer lets you adust the "label guide", which keeps the labels from wandering away from the sensor (and the proper printhead position).

Move the lever clockwise to open the printhead and adjust the guide so it is slightly snug against the labels but so that you can pull the labels without much effort.
The thumbscrew towards the front of the printer allow you to position the gap sensor to detect the leading edge and trailing edge of the label, so the printer can . If your printer used to work OK, this might be in the proper place, but if it is loose, slide the thumbscrew left or right to center the sneosr between the edges of the label.

Printer keeps printing blanks...

We have found a reset that we use.
We unplug the printer and then we hold down the feed button and we keep holding down the feed button while we plug back in.
It goes through some sort of a reset and this sometimes works.

Printing Round Labels

the issue sounds inpart to be related the set lable length, the printer thinks that the data will not fit on the label and gives the error. also note that the gap sensor is not in the center so the printer will not and can not autodetect the media correctly. you need to tweak the label setup. you could trick the printer by centering the labels over the gap sensor or if you do a autocalibating use the lable size it give you which would be much smaller then 17mm
