Common Error Codes in Thermal Transfer Overprinters and How to Fix Them
Thermal Transfer Overprinters (TTO) such as Markem X40/X45/X65, Videojet 6230/6330/6550, and LINX TT500/TT750/TT1000 are widely used in food, pharma, and flexible packaging lines. But when production speeds increase, certain error codes may appear and affect printing stability.

On Markem models, common alarms include Ribbon Low, Printhead Temperature High, or Ribbon Jam—usually caused by incorrect ribbon tension or worn printheads. Videojet devices often show Fault 109 (Ribbon Drive Error) or Fault 115 (Printhead Pressure), typically related to ribbon tracking or environmental conditions. LINX TTO printers may display Ribbon Break or Drive Motor Error, often due to worn rollers or improper ribbon loading.
Our TTO solutions are designed to minimize downtime with stable ribbon control, durable printheads, and easy maintenance. Whether you’re replacing OEM units or upgrading your production line, we offer fully compatible, cost-effective systems that keep your coding accurate, clean, and reliable.
