My Brother P-Touch QL 500 stopped printing and keeps blinking

I used this label printer Tuesday and today I tried to print a label and it goes to green light blinking and nothing will print. I believe it has something to do with the computer set up page will not respond and if i shut the computer down the Brother P-Touch stops blinking and appears to be waiting to print. As soon as I boot up the computer the blinking starts.

Either the wrong printer is selected or the wrong size label inserted. Another possibility could be the incorrect size label in the format.

This solution from loquiter worked for me on my Vista PC
noavatar_s.gif loquiter
I am assuming that your hard disk is not actually full. I am guessing that you are running Windows 7. Click through your start menu until you can see the entry to launch your P-touch Editor. Right click on the entry and click "Properties". Click the "Compatibility" tab. Under "Privilege Level" check the box labeled "Run this program as an administrator". (You can do the same for all users of this computer by clicking the button immediately below, labeled "Change settings for all users".) Click OK, and you're done. The next time you launch the editor, you will get a message asking: "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" Click yes, and you should be able to edit and print your labels. Of course, all this assumes that you have sufficient privileges to actually edit permissions and run something as an administrator. Hope this helps. .g_thread_answer { overflow:visible !important; } Was this solution helpful?

I have a Brother QL-500 Label Printer. The LED light just flashes when I try to print a label. I've tried cleaning it and found a label that had jammed. I removed it, cleaned it with the cleaning paper,...

The printer will blink and not print if the incorrect size label is either installed in the printer or incorrect size in the software. You must have the same size in the software as installed in the printer.

QL 550 won't print

It has no ink as it is a thermal printer.   Make sure you are using genuine Brother Thermal Labels.
