Error and warning message
For a list of all the errors / warnings that can be generated, see Appendix G.
9.6 Poor print quality
Fault indication
Action(s)
Poor print quality in
general.
Check the density.
Check whether the coding unit is correctly mounted within its frame.
Check whether the platen is not worn, is clean and is smooth. Also check for air
bubbles within the pad.
Check whether the ribbon used is suitable for the substrate to be printed.
Check whether the ribbon is loaded correctly for the application i.e. ink side out.
Verify whether the air pressure is set to 0,4MPa (4 bar) (0,5 MPa for QiC 107i).
Parts of the label are
missing and white lines
appear within the printed
label (Fig. 9.30)
Check whether the printhead has been cleaned recently.
Check whether the printhead has some damaged pixels and requires replacing.
Check whether the platen surface is clean.
Check whether the platen surface is not damaged, otherwise replace it.
Labels are only partially
printed.
Check whether the prints on the ribbon are overlapping. If so:
- Check the ribbon encoder.
- Check whether the ribbon core notches engage with the magazine.
The ribbon width has been
changed from 35mm to
55mm as a wider label
needs to be printed. The
printed labels shows faint
areas about 35mm apart.
The printhead has been worn out on the edges due to the narrower ribbon and
requires replacing.
