Q: My labels are too dark/light. How do I adjust the darkness of my Zebra R110Xi?

A: The darkness may need to be adjusted in two places if your labels are printing too dark or too light. The first place is through the front panel of your printer. If you are using software other than On-Demand to print your labels you can adjust the darkness right on your printer. Alternatively, if you are using On-Demand, the darkness setting in On-Demand will override the printer setting, allowing you to make all your adjustments right in the On-Demand software.
