The media sensor or media sensor circuitry may be defective: Call for service.
STOP
Light flashing
When the printer is equipped with the Peel and Present Options the
STOP
light will flash when a label is
presented to the operator. This is considered normal.
If the printer is configured to use the Peel and Present option and yet the option is not installed or the option is
removed with power on, the
STOP
light will flash to alert the operator.
Tracking Problems
The media may not be properly loaded: Reload it (see Chapter 3). When loading media ensure that the media

Ensure the ribbon width is approximately .125” (4mm) to .250”(7mm) wider then the label media.
Increase the inner (closest to centerplate) Printhead Pressure Adjustment Screw counterclockwise to increase
the applied pressure (see Chapter 5).
