Maintenance
The Makeid L1 Label Maker uses thermal printing technology, meaning no ink cartridges are required. To maintain optimal print quality, regularly clean the print head with a soft, lint-free cloth. Ensure the label tape compartment is free of dust and debris. Store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
When replacing label tape, ensure the new roll is properly aligned to prevent jams or misprints. Only use genuine Makeid label tapes for best results and to avoid damaging the printer.
Troubleshooting
- Printer not connecting via Bluetooth: Ensure the label maker is powered on and fully charged. Verify Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and you are connecting through the "MakeID-Life" app, not directly through phone settings. Try restarting both the printer and your phone.
- Poor print quality: Check if the label tape is loaded correctly and is not wrinkled or damaged. Clean the print head. Ensure the battery is not low, as low power can affect print quality.
- Labels not cutting properly: Ensure the label tape is fully extended after printing before pressing the cutter button. Check for any obstructions in the cutting mechanism.
- Label jams: Open the cover and carefully remove any jammed tape. Ensure the tape is loaded smoothly and not twisted.
- App issues: Ensure your "MakeID-Life" app is updated to the latest version. Try clearing the app's cache or reinstalling it if problems persist.
