Verify the Printer Is Working
Before you connect the printer to your computer or portable 
data terminal, make sure that the printer is in proper working 
order. You can do this by printing a configuration label using
the “two key reset” method.  If you can’t get this label to print, 
refer to “Troubleshooting”.
Printing a Configuration Label
1. Turn the printer off.  Load the media compartment with 
journal media (media with no black bars printed on the 
back)
2. Press and hold the Feed Button.
3. Press and release the Power button and keep the Feed 
button pressed.  When printing starts, release the Feed 
button.  
   The unit will print a line of interlocking “x” characters to 
ensure all elements of the print head are working, print out the 
version of software loaded in the printer and then print two re-
ports.
  The first report indicates model, ROM version, serial num-
ber, baud rate, etc.    The second report prints out more de-
tailed information on the printer’s configuration and parameter 
settings.  If no second report appears, there is no application 
loaded. (See the Troubleshooting Section for sample printouts 
and a further discussion on how to use the configuration label 
as a diagnostic tool.)
Connecting the Printer
The printer must establish communications with a host ter-
minal which sends the data to be printed.  Communications 
occur in four basic ways:
• QL Plus series printers can communicate by cable via ei-
ther RS-232C or USB 2.0 protocols. USB drivers are in-
cluded in the Zebra Universal Driver which can be down-
loaded from 
www.zebra.com/drivers
.
• Linking to a host terminal via Infrared (usually by means
of the industry standard IrDA protocol)
• By means of a Bluetooth™ short range radio frequency
link.
•  By means of a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) per
802.11b/g specifications.
