Intermec 3400 label printer

Does a label come out of the printer?

You can adjust the darkness level +/- 10. If you adjust it all the way to 10 and it is still too light, there is a print head pressure adjustment screw to the left of the ribbon feed roller.

THE LABEL SENSOR IS NOT SENSING THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT LABEL

Clean the photo eye that senses the label gap with a q tip and alchol

Open side door release print head and remove label stock you will see small photo eye clean

put printer in manual mode( switch 1 on to and 1 on botom on

turn printer on it should advance one label and hit skip it should advance another

put back in computer mode

should work now if it still skips check yur label desigh=n software and label mode (continuous or sense label)


Best of luck to you

the empt ause light is related to the loading of the label

turn off printer open side door and release print head feed label stock so that it stays up against the back side of the machine(left side as youface front)

Teh print head pops up like a **** shell also make sure the label stock goes under the photo eye which senses the gap between labels

There are a series of dip switches which put the printer in manual mode which is required to install labels and make sure the machine advances properly

the switch settings ar locatd on the inside for the side cover or on the very back I think manual mode is 1onat top bank and 1 on at bottom bank

Once you do this turn machine on and it shuld advance two labels and stop and green light should come on

Now you can switch the machine to compter mode ( not sure of switch setting)

Good luck these are good printers and will give good service once you are familiar with them

your com setting must be 9600baud 7 data bits even parity

you may need to drop back to win 98

here is the syntax you need to send to the printer STX ESC E5 CAN DATA CR DATA CR ETB ETX PRINT

I've printed images over 500kb. Can you print a small image? If not, perhaps the driver is the problem.

If you're trying to send a text file of IPL commands to the printer, set up a Generic Text printer driver, to to send the file as ascii characters instead of as a graphic image. You can set this up in addition to your Intermec driver.

Go to Printers and Faxes, Add Printer, Next, Select the Port, Select "Generic" Manufacturer, "Generic / Text Only" Printer, and give it a name like "Text". Cycle the printer power to clear previous attempts, then print the file to this printer name.

I am using Smartforms with Intermec printer 3400-e and it works in the correct way.
What is the software that you use to build the layout of the label? In my case Loftware.
What is the code to print the Barcodes.
In my case Code 39

If you're using this printer on a print server then do the following

Turn Printer Off
Disconnect Data Cable
Press & Hold Feed button whilst switching on
Keep Holding Feed Button until test label is complete and light has gone red
Switch Printer off

Reset your Print Server
Plug Data Cable back into printer
Switch Printer on

This should start it printing (unless there are jobs inthe print queue, if there are then they will need to be deleted before printing will commence)

you have to send the output as such (STX) ESCe5(CAN)(DATA)(CR)(DATA)(CR)(DATA)(ETB)(ETX)PRINT

DO NOT PUT ANY SPACES BETWEEN DATA

HOPE THIS HELPS
