This video will teach you how to clear a Printer Media Out Error code on a ZT111 printer. We will address the common issue of the ZT111 printer displaying a Media Out Error with a steady red STATUS light, a steady red SUPPLIES light, and a steady yellow PAUSE light. We'll guide you through the step-by-step process to resolve this error efficiently. First, we'll show you how to reload media correctly if it's not loaded or loaded incorrectly, along with checking and realigning the media sensor position. If your printer is set for non-continuous media but continuous media is loaded, we'll explain how to either install the proper media type or adjust the printer settings accordingly.

The ZT111 Printer may display a out of media error when:

  • The labels are loaded in the machine incorrectly

  • The media sensors is in the incorrect position

  • The printer is set for continuous media

Proper Media Installment

Make sure that the ribbons are coming from over top of the roll.

The yellow arm should be flipped up and pushed snug against the roll.

Next, you will need to make sure that the media sensor's is in the correct position. The green light should be centered on the labels.

You can adjust this by sliding the yellow square left and right to get it in the proper placement.

If your printer is set for non-continuous media but continuous media is loaded, you will need to make sure that non-continuous is loaded or change the setting.
