If your label printer has stopped working, you may be able to fix the issue by using some of the tips below.
- Check that the printer is still showing as a printer in the Windows settings (Settings > Devices > Printers and Scanners). If it isn't then you may need to reinstall the printer. If you are installing/reinstalling a driver, it is recommended that you unplug the printer's USB cable from the computer and switch off the printer before starting the install. You will be asked to reconnect it during the install.
- Check that there is nothing stuck in the queue that could be preventing new labels from printing.
- In Windows, navigate to Settings > Devices > Printers & Scanners, select the correct printer > Open Queue.
- To clear the queue, select Printer > Cancel all documents. - Check that you can print a test page from the printer in your Windows settings (Settings > Devices > Printers & Scanners, select the correct printer > Manage > Print a test page).
- Check that the printer device is registered in i-Clarity. (You will need full Maintenance access for this).
- Navigate to Maintenance > Branch & System > Devices.
- Look for your label printer in the grid. It should look something like this:
- If it is listed, check that the computer name matches your computer name. (You can check the name of your computer in Settings > System > About.
- If the barcode printer isn't listed, then you can add it at the bottom of the screen.
- Navigate to Maintenance > Branch & System > Computers.
- Locate your computer name in the grid and select the label printer from the dropdown list of the USB Label Printer column.
- Click away from the row to save your changes. Then exit Maintenance and perform a test print.
