TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem  Solution 
The printer cover won’t close. Ensure the tabs on the paper compartment cover are aligned with the holes in the  printer.
Label, not centred, misaligned, offset, skipped, poor  printing etc. • Ensure the paper roll is correctly installed in the printer.
• Ensure that the label is placed in the printer with printing side facing left. If it is  placed incorrectly (reversed), printing will fail.
• Check the label size and image on the label packaging and choose the correct  template in the App. To do so, select “Label Setting”.
Do I need to click the power button to allow the  machine to calibrate and position the label? When installing or replacing label paper roll for the first time, click the power button to print a blank label so that the print head can identify the position of label paper.
When using continuous paper, do not click the power button for positioning, just pull out the paper outlet.
Printing is blurry. In the profile menu on the app, select “Printer” and choose “Kogan KAPRNTPKLBA Portable Pocket BT Label Printer - icon 29” to view the printer’s  batter level.
If it is less than 10%, charge the printer using the supplied charging cable.
Printer will not connect via Bluetooth. Ensure the printer is on and Bluetooth is enabled on your phone or device.
For android phones, ensure the GPS is on and confirm authorisation in your privacy settings.
There is foreign matter or glue on the printhead. Use a cotton swab dipped with a little alcohol to gently wipe the dirt on the print head.  Allow to dry before printing.
