Toshiba TEC B-SX4 Thermal Label Printer Logo

Paper jam error message

Hi, I keep getting a "paper jam" error message for my SX4.
After checking the label roll and making sure things are fine, I restarted the SX4. So the red "error" light is off. But when I sent the print job to the SX4 again, the error message re-appeared. Is there a way to solve this? Thanks.

This problem is a detection problem, due to a bad sensor selection or incorrect label size.

If the labels are white labels with a separation between each, select TRANSMISSIVE. If the labels are preprinted, select the TRANSMISSIVE PREPRINTED LABELS and set the threshold doing this.

With the printer in ONLINE, press PAUSE once, the message PAUSE appears in the display, press and hold on the PAUSE key, TRANSMISSIVE is displayed, release the key and press PAUSE until labels starts to feed, let feed some labels (5 or 6) and release the key. Press Restart and start to print.

My casio KL-60 Power ON got message ERROR!. How to clear the problem

Here are some steps you can try to clear the problem:
  1. Check the Label Tape: Ensure that the label tape is properly installed and correctly aligned in the label printer. Sometimes, an improperly installed label tape can trigger an error message.
  2. Check for Paper Jams: Open the label printer and check for any paper jams or obstructions that might be causing the error. Clear any jams or obstructions you find.
  3. Replace the Batteries or Use AC Power: If your Casio KL-60 label printer is powered by batteries, try replacing the batteries with fresh ones. If you're using AC power, make sure the power adapter is working correctly and properly connected.
  4. Perform a Soft Reset: Turn off the label printer and unplug it from the power source (if applicable). Wait for a few seconds, then plug it back in and power it on again. This can sometimes resolve temporary issues.
  5. Check the User Manual: Consult the user manual or troubleshooting guide that came with your Casio KL-60 label printer. It may have specific instructions for troubleshooting error messages.
  6. Factory Reset: If the error persists and you have tried all other steps, you may need to perform a factory reset to restore the printer to its default settings. Keep in mind that a factory reset will erase any custom settings you may have made.

PAPER JAM

Paper jams can be tricky to solve. The paper is usually stuck inside the printer mechanism so even if there is no visible paper jam, you will still get the paper jam error. Try this:

1. Turn off your printer
2. Open all trays and remove any paper stuck there
3. Locate the button to open the printer, open it and remove any paper stuck there also.
4. Repeate the above step for all buttons that you can find to access the inside of the printer
5. Close all doors and put back all trays
6. Turn on your printer

My printer keeps telling me I have a paper jam there is not

There is either a sensor flag out of place, which is usually a small plastic piece, or you still have a small piece of paper stuck some where. Without knowing which machine we are talking about it's hard to say which it is.
