Can I use zebra exp series 3 ribbon on a zebra zxp series 1?
No you cannot use a ZXP Series 3 ribbon on a ZXP Series 1, or vice-versa. All Zebra ribbons contain RFID tags with ribbon specifications, including the ribbon type (part-number). The printer validates the ribbon as matching the printer you're using, and allows or disallows use, depending on if it is specified for the model or not.
My zebra 105se printhead light is blinking yellow
The printhead light blinking usually means that the printhead is open. Is this happening with the printhead locked down ? If this is the case, the problem is with printhead open flag. It is located on the electronic side of the printer. You need to take off the side cover (with printer turned off). The lever that raises and closes the printhead is attached to a shaft (the pressure toggle is also on this shaft). Follow this shaft to the electronic side of the printer.
At the end of this shaft, there will be a black rectangular piece of plastic. This is the head open flag. When printhead is closed, the flag is positioned at the six o'clock position between two optic sensors. When the printhead is opened, the flag rotates clockwise to about the nine o'clock position. If the HEAD OPEN message appears when the head is closed, then the flag is out of position, usually it has become loose on the end of the shaft.
The flag is attached to the end of the shaft with an allen screw. Make sure the head is closed, position the flag to the six o'clock position between the two sensors and tighten the screw. this should take care of the problem.
Hope that helps !

Thermal printers don't use ribbons or ink. They transfer images/text with heat on to special thermal paper.
