How do I calibrate my Zebra LP/TLP Thermal Printer?

Use this sequence for LP/TLP desks. Do not follow the ZP450 two-flash hold — that is a different printer family. ZP450 calibrate · QL calibrate.

1. Set the driver or application to the media type you are using (Gap/Web or Black Bar / Mark). Send a test print while the button is green so the printer is configured. Cycle power if the button is red — the printer only accepts data when the light is green.
2. Turn the printer off with media loaded.
3. Hold the feed button down and turn the printer back on.
4. When the red light starts flashing, release the feed button.
5. The light turns green and the printer advances a few blanks.
6. When it stops and prints internal information, press Feed once.
7. You should get another label with an “Out of Dump” message. After that, one label should issue each time you press Feed.
