I accidentally set my language wrong and can't read the screen.

The keyboard is the wrong layout, so when I press the Y/Z z key, it shows the opposite letter.

Zebra LP-2824: TLP-2824 wont stop feeding blank labels

Thu, 12 Apr 2018 05:36:29 -0700

I have a TLP-2824 printer by Zebra

When powered on, the printer will not stop feeding blank labels. The only way to get it to stop is to shut off the power. I have tried doing a calibration by holding down the feed button while turning the power on, the printer will go thru the calibration steps, and the continuous feeding of the labels continues. Pressing the feed button will also cause the printer to continuous feed labels. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

Dymo LabelManager 160: Why are the buttons typing the wrong characters or input?

Thu, 11 Sep 2025 11:26:43 -0700

I have had my Dymo LabelManager 160 for a while. Lately, it has been glitching in which pressing a certain key produces the wrong function. When I press the L key, it activated the rotate function. Also, the punctuation key displays the number 9. Pressing the delete key activated the underline key. Pressing the O key printed the label!

I even tried a factory reset by removing the batteries and pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. Then, I reinserted the batteries and pressed power + 9 + backspace. Still did not fix the issue.

I would greatly appreciate any help. Thank you for your help!

Brother P-Touch H107: P-Touch H107: not printing, only blank labels coming out

Wed, 04 Dec 2024 07:03:41 -0700

Problem

I have a P-Touch H107 which is mainly similar to the PT-1010.

Product picture:

All of a sudden this P-Touch didn't print any text on the label anymore. It is feeding out the label when I hit the print button, but not printing text on it (see picture below).

What I have tried

Cleaning the print head and rollers > No effect (actually, they didn't look dirty.
Put in 2 different bale-cassettes to try > No difference / No effect.
Changed batteries to new > No effect.

Observation

When looking inside the device, I noticed there is a small block with 4 pins that can be pushed inwards. I believe this is the sensor for detecting the type of label cassette used in the P-Touch. In mine, one of the pins seems to be stuck inside, not coming out. I am not sure of this has to do with my issue, but I take this into account.

Picture of cassette sensor & one pin down:

Questions

What can I do to solve my problem?
If the sensor block is the problem and needs to be replaced, where can I get the part?
