Frequently Asked Questions - R4Mplus ZEBRA
How do I load label rolls into the Zebra R4Mplus?

What types of labels are compatible with the R4Mplus?
This printer supports roll-fed thermal labels for direct thermal and thermal transfer using ribbon. It can handle die-cut or continuous labels within a width of 104 mm.
How should I clean the printhead and platen roller?
Switch off the printer, open the printhead, and wipe the printhead and platen roller with a lint-free cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol. Perform this regularly to avoid print defects.
Why are my labels not printing sharply?
Poor print quality can result from dirty printhead, incorrect darkness setting, or incompatible media/ribbon. Clean the printer, adjust the darkness in the driver, and ensure you use an approved ribbon.
How do I calibrate the label sensor?
Press and hold the feed button until it blinks, then release. The printer will feed a label and set the sensor threshold for the current media.
