DTC1500 Error 112

1. Comprehending the Mistake:   Error 112 often relates to issues with the connection between your computer and the printer, or problems with the data being sent to the printer.
2. Troubleshooting Procedures:

Check the Connection:

• • USB Cable:
    • Ensure the USB cable is securely plugged into both the printer and your computer.
    • Try using a different USB cable to rule out a faulty cable.
    • Try plugging the USB cable into a different USB port on your computer.
  • Network Connection (if applicable):
    • If your DTC1500 is connected via Ethernet, verify that the network cable is properly connected.
    • Check that the printer has a valid IP address and that it’s reachable on your network.
    • Restart your router/switch.

3.  Restart the Printer and Computer: Power cycle both the printer and your computer. This can resolve temporary glitches.

4.  Printer Drivers:

• • Ensure you have the latest Fargo DTC1500 printer drivers installed on your computer.
  • Uninstall and reinstall the printer drivers to rule out corrupted driver files. You can get the newest drivers from the HID global website.

6.  Firewall and Antivirus:

• • Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software to see if they are interfering with the printer’s communication.
  • If disabling these resolves the issue, you’ll need to configure them to allow communication with the printer.

8.  Test with a Different Computer:
