1. Are you running continuous media with no gaps? (Yes – 2; No – 3)
2. In TagPrint Pro, select Print tab, Print Setup, Stock, and make sure Type is set to “Continuous” and Post Print Action is set to “Cut” (provided you have a cutter – otherwise, “None”). If using a cutter, set “Occurrence” after every page. Click OK. Turn printer off and on again and try printing to see if the issue is resolved.

With thick labels, the normal backup procedure of the printer cannot be utilized, or the product will bump against the cutter blade or the top of the tear off guide, causing the labels to become misaligned. To avoid this, you can change the driver settings in one of two ways.
1. OPTION 1: Click the Windows Start button and select Devices and Printers. Right-click your printer’s driver and select Printing Preferences. Click on the Stock tab. Make sure the Post-Print Action is set to NONE. Click Apply and OK. Restart TagPrint Pro. Try printing to see if the issue is resolved.
2. OPTION 2: In TagPrint Pro, select the PRINT ribbon. Ensure your TT230 driver is selected. Click Print Setup. Select the Stock tab. Ensure that the Post-Print Action is set to NONE. Click OK. Try printing to see if the issue is resolved.
3. OPTION 3: Ensure the markers are not creating undue drag on the printer. For thick labels on a roll, we recommend using the optional label caddy (part number 556-00235) as opposed to dispensing the markers directly from the carton. In most cases, dispensing from the carton is not an issue, but if the cardboard core is not turning freely, the printer cannot pull the tag efficiently, causing the ShrinkTrak to misalign in the printer.
4. If the problem persists, please contact Tech Support.
