Problem

Solution

You are using security software

See

Security Software Problems

on page 176.

Your Label Printer is not assigned
with an available IP address

Confirm the IP address and the Subnet Mask.

Verify that both the IP addresses and Subnet Masks of your computer and
your Label Printer are correct and located on the same network.

For more information on how to verify the IP address and the Subnet Mask,
ask the network administrator.

Confirm your IP address, Subnet Mask and other network settings using the
Printer Setting Tool.

For more information, see

Changing the Label Printer Settings

on page 37.

Your previous printing job failed

If the failed printing job is still in your computer's print queue, delete it.

For example, when using Windows 7:

,

[

Devices and Printers

] and select the Label Printer from [

Printers

and Faxes

]. Double-click the Label Printer's icon, and then select [

Cancel

All Documents

] in the [

Printer

] menu.

I have checked and tried all of the
above, but my Label Printer does not
print

Uninstall the printer driver and the software, and then reinstall them.

Problem

Solution

You did not select to allow access
when the

Security Alert

dialog box

appeared during either the standard
installation, BRAdmin Light
installation, or when printing

If you did not select to allow access when the

Security Alert

dialog box

appeared, the firewall function of your security software may be blocking
access. Some security software may block access without displaying a

Security Alert

dialog box. To allow access, refer to your security software

instructions or ask the manufacturer.
