Printers
The Printers page lists every printer you added, with its live state. Open one to see its queue, the loaded material and its settings.
Tape and label rolls
Section titled “Tape and label rolls”For PT-Series and QL-Series printers the hub reads the loaded tape or label roll from the printer itself. A label is laid out for what is loaded; you do not configure the tape width anywhere. When the printer reports that it is running low or empty, the overview says so before the next job fails.
States
Section titled “States”| State | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Ready | The printer answers and can print | Nothing |
| Printing | A job is on its way | Wait; the job page shows progress |
| Cover open, no tape, offline | The printer reported a problem | Fix it at the printer, then resume the printer’s queue |
| Paused | Someone paused the queue | Resume it on the printer page |
When the printer reports a recoverable problem in the middle of the queue, the queue stops instead of throwing jobs away. After you fixed it, resume the printer: in the web UI on the printer page, or with POST /api/v1/printer/resume.
Disabled printers
Section titled “Disabled printers”A disabled printer takes no jobs: a print to it is refused with printer_disabled.
