How to solve the Zebra 105sl error code paper out issue

Possible Cause: Media is not loaded or loaded incorrectly.

Solution: Load media correctly. Loading media in a Zebra 105SL printer involves a few steps. Please note that this is a general guide, and you should always refer to the specific instructions in your printer’s manual for the most accurate guidance. Here’s a basic overview of how to load media into a Zebra 105SL printer:

  • Prepare Your Media:
    – Ensure that you have the correct type and size of label or media for your printer.
    – Remove any old labels or media from the printer.
  • Open the Media Door:
    – Locate the media door on the front of the printer.
    – Open the door to access the media path.
  • Adjust the Media Guides:
    – Most Zebra printers have adjustable media guides on the inside of the media path. Adjust these guides to match the width of your media.
  • Load the Media:
    – Insert the roll of media into the media path with the leading edge facing the front of the printer.
    – Ensure that the media is inserted between the adjustable media guides.
    – Depending on your label setup, you might need to thread the media under or over various guides and sensors.
  • Adjust the Printhead Pressure (Optional):
    – If necessary, adjust the printhead pressure. This is typically done using the printhead pressure adjustment dial on the top of the printhead mechanism.
  • Close the Media Door:
    – Carefully close the media door, ensuring that the media is properly fed through the printer.
  • Calibrate the Media (Optional):
    – Some Zebra printers require you to perform a media calibration after loading new media. Refer to your printer’s manual for instructions on how to do this.
  • Connect and Power On:
    – Connect the printer to your computer or network and power it on.
  • Configure Your Printer:
    – Install the necessary printer drivers and configure the printer settings on your computer.
