My printout contains garbled characters when I print from Windows or my Mac. What should I do?

  • If incorrect characters appear in your prints, try these solutions before reprinting:

    • Make sure any cables are securely connected at both ends.
    • In Windows, delete all jobs from the Windows Spooler. Click Print Queue on the Maintenance tab in the printer settings window, and cancel any stalled print jobs.
    • If your product is connected to a USB hub, connect it directly to your computer instead.
    • If incorrect characters still appear in your prints, try connecting your product using a different cable.
