Printer Issues
The following are solutions to some common issues you may encounter while
working with the label printer.
Power Status Light Flashing
If the power status light is flashing, the problem could be one of the following:
Clearing Label Jams
To clear labels that have become
jammed in the printer
1 Tear off any labels that have already
fed through the printer.
2 Press the label release lever forward
and pull the jammed label out of the
label exit slot.
Correcting Poor Print Quality
Poor print quality is most frequently caused by one of the following:
 An old roll of labels
 Labels made by a manufacturer other than DYMO
 Labels where the thermal coating has been compromised
 A dirty print head
First, make sure you are using DYMO-branded labels. Do not use third-party
labels because the thermal coating on other labels has a different sensitivity than
DYMO-branded labels. Also, the perforated holes between the labels made by
other manufacturers are frequently not detectable by LabelWriter printers.
If the print quality becomes faint, small dots of white appear scattered through the
printed characters, or light and dark patches of printing appear, you are probably
using a faulty roll of labels. Try using a different roll from a fresh box. If the second
roll prints correctly, the problem is with the first roll of labels.
Another possibility is that the LabelWriter print head needs cleaning. See Caring
for Your Printer on page 21 for information about cleaning the label path with a
LabelWriter cleaning card.
Problem Solution
