Ink Not Applying to the Labels/Hangtags

While this is more of a printer issue than a template problem, we are happy to walk you through some steps to help unclog your printer cartridges.

(Be sure to insert blank printer paper)

• Remove cartridges and shake them gently.

• I have had good luck in these situations by removing the cartridges and briefly dipping them in water. Have a paper towel handy to wipe them off.

• Otherwise, try the Cleaning/Deep Cleaning option available in the printer options.

• Last resort would be to clean the cartridges ink heads with an alcohol dipped q-tip.

Microsoft Word with Outlines:  (recommend for beginners) Quickly add your text and images to your hang tags using the Microsoft word template with outlines.  Each template comes loaded with a table that includes the perfect margins. 

Additionally, we have added images that show the outline of the hang tag so you can design with ease.  Just delete the images before printing.
