[PM344WiFi] How to Avoid Printing Blurred Content

Info
If you use the PM344WiFi printer to print labels and find that the printing effect of the labels is not good enough, some places are blurry, please pay attention to the following information.

1. Check the Printer Head

If there is paper residue or glue residue on the printer's print head, use an alcohol swab to gently wipe the dirty area of the print head. Make sure the print head is clean and dry before trying to print again.


2. Check the Power Adapter

If the power adapter used by the printer is not the original power adapter with output specifications (24V-2.5A), the printer may print too lightly, print blankly, or print unclearly.

2. Label source file used when unclear printing occurs
3. Photo of the power adapter connected to the printer.
4. Screenshot of the printer's firmware information (computer/mobile version is acceptable).
5. Photo of a self-test page printed by the printer:
Insert the label and make sure it is straight and smooth. Turn on the printer, and when the printer is in standby mode (the WiFi button on the left and the paper feed button on the right both show a solid blue indicator light), press and hold the paper feed button on the right until the blue light flashes once, then release the paper feed button.

Let us check whether the printer self-test page is printed clearly.
