Yes this is possible. The PN# is G46999-0801 for Cyrillic Font CG Times.

The printer on the foto is a label printer (xi series)
The 330i (P330i) is a card printer (out of paper?!?) send the command !SA to calibrate the ribbond and the CADS.

If is like the foto. run sensor profile, check if see the gaps, if not, check fisicly the two sensors behind the printhead if they are on the same position, They need to mach.
Run manual calibration.
Hope help you.

There is no such thing as self clean mode. get a cotton swab soaked in 90% or stronger isopropyl alchol and wipe the print head. be careful not to scratch.

Simply press the PAUSE button then press CANCEL. If you have sent a batch of 500 labels, though, you will have to press CANCEL 500 times. I usually just turn the printer off, cancel the job in the printer driver status box, then wait for all of the error messages to pop up.

if this is a zebra 170 xi or similar, the problem will be a sensor in the interior of the printer. Don't get scared as this is easy to fix. you will need to remove the cover to be able to view all the circuit boards.
when you have removed the cover, if you check the axle of the latch that you use to open the printhead, (the one with the two pressure knobs) and check the end of that axle in the sidde where the circuit boards are, you will see that it has a small piece of plastic about 1.5cm long by 0.5 cm wide that should turn with the axle when opening and closing.
when the printhead is closed, this bit of plastic should be in front of a small black sensor.

The problem that you may have is that either is broken or became lose.

Please let me know if you have managed to sort this or whether you will need more guidance.

obviously, if the printer is under warranty, do contact your distributor before proceeding to open the case to avoid any warranty issues.

Also, don't forget to unplug the printer from the mains before doing anything to it.

Don't forget to rate this.

You can download Zebra manulas from here. https://www.zebra.com/id/zebra/na/en/index/service_support.html here is a section of the calibration you require. Sorry it will not allow me to attach. i think issue with site usage.

Anyway press PAUSE to pause printer. Then find & press CALIBRATION, it will ask when you want to calibrate either at power up or after the print head is open & closed. I would select Power up since when you change lables out you should do so with printer off.

Good luck, post any questions to this & also rate it.

Recalibrate. Sometimes the LED is too strong and it will show through the paper or the sensor is damaged. People will jam screwdrivers in there to get the label out. This sensor is found where the label first goes into the rollers.
