I have a Zebra series 1 that keeps throwing a mecanical error after printer the first pass yellow. It also seems like it is checking the ribbon. When ever I open the card reservior lid.

One possible reason for this issue could be a problem with the printer's ribbon sensor. The ribbon sensor is responsible for detecting the presence of a ribbon and ensuring that it is properly aligned. If the sensor is not functioning correctly, it may cause the printer to throw a mechanical error and check the ribbon whenever the card reservoir lid is opened.

Another possible cause of this issue could be a problem with the printer's motor or drive system. If there is an issue with these components, it may cause the printer to stall or throw an error message when attempting to print.

To resolve this issue, it may be necessary to perform some troubleshooting steps. First, try cleaning the printer's sensors and rollers to ensure that they are free from debris or dust. Additionally, check to make sure that the ribbon is properly loaded and aligned in the printer.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact Zebra technical support for further assistance.

"Display connected non-HDCP compliant" error

The HDMI cable was causing "Display connected non-HDCP compliant" error message to appear.
When I reconnected my DVD to TV using regular cable with 3 color connectors(i don't know what is the proper name for that cable) that error message no longer appears on my screen and I was able to watch my movie normally.

RIBBON ERRORS

Ribbon error message is displayed when the rotation of the ribbon spindle is not performed or not correctly detected. This can be due to various factors.
- The ribbon roll is not correctly fitted to the spindle.
- The sensors detecting the rotation are out of order or completetly filled with dust or grease.
In this case clean the sensors.
Another reason may be due to Direct thermal printing with a ribbon mounted.

Zebra ZM600 - ribbon in error

Make sure the ribbon sensor is in the proper position and that there is nothing covering it, like a piece of label that came off and got stuck to the sensor. Here is a picture of where the sensor is located. Did you make sure you put the ribbon sensor plate back in? If not you will get this message. Make sure the Print Method is correctly set! Although I exclusively use Thermal-Transfer (ribbon is loaded along with label stock) my 140xIII had Print Method set to Direct-Thermal and printed labels just fine. The only problem I could see was that the Ribbon In warning would not go away.
After changing the Print Method the warning went away and printing continues as before

"warning Ribbon In" error message

Had the same problem with a ZM400. As stated in the User manual (can be downloaded http://www.zebra.com/id/zebra/na/en/index/resource_library/manuals.results.html?FRRBarcodePrinters=6882), warning "Ribbon in" is usually caused by the wrong printing method (thermal direct instead of thermal transfer [which should be selected for ribbbons]). My error disappeared after choosing "thermal transfer" directly on the printer. For network printers this needs to be set by an admin in the network settings for the the printer to solve the problem permanently.
