Service for the barcode printers, scanners and mobile computers we sell
We service every brand we sell, including Zebra, Honeywell, Newland, TSC, Godex and TVS, whoever sold you the device. Log a service call with the form below, by phone or by email, and our support team in Chennai takes it from there.
Tell us the model, the serial number and what is wrong. A photo or short video helps.
We call you
Our support team checks the details and the warranty, and agrees with you whether we visit your site or you bring the device to Chennai.
You know the cost first
We find the fault and tell you what it needs. Paid work starts only when you say yes.
We fix it and check it
We repair, test with your own labels or barcodes where we can, and hand it back working.
If a barcode stops scanning or printing, call or WhatsApp us: we check the printer, label, ribbon and scanner settings with you remotely, and visit or take the unit in when that does not fix it.

Your site address and the person we should contact.
Before you call
Quick checks that fix common problems
Simple checks we use first. If they do not solve it, log a call.
Printer skips labels or prints blank ones
Calibrate the printer after loading a new roll, and check that the label size set in the driver matches your software. A printer set to thermal transfer needs a ribbon; a ribbon loaded the wrong way round also prints blank. More on ribbons: ribbon wrinkle and smudge guide.
Print is faint or has white lines
Clean the printhead with isopropyl alcohol, as the maker's guide describes; Zebra's ZD421 guide says to clean it each time you load a new roll. Gaps in the print that stay after cleaning point to a damaged printhead (Zebra's ZT411 guide calls it "long tracks of missing print"): log a call, or see printheads by printer model.
Scanner beeps but nothing appears, or types wrong characters
Scan into Notepad. If the code appears there, the scanner works and the setting belongs in your software. Wrong characters usually mean the scanner's keyboard country does not match your computer. More fixes: scanner troubleshooting guide.
Cordless scanner stops sending scans
Charge it in its base, check the base is connected to the computer, and stay within range. If it still will not connect, it may need pairing again with the barcode in its guide.
"Head Open" or "Carriage Open" on the printer
The printhead or cover is not fully closed. Close it until the latches snap shut. If the alert stays with the cover closed, the head-open switch or sensor needs service: log a call.
Ribbon error, but you use labels without a ribbon
The printer is set to thermal transfer and is looking for a ribbon. Set the print method to direct thermal in the printer or its driver, then calibrate. See the label printer setup steps.
The printer says "Replace Printhead" or "Head Element Out"
Some Zebra printers warn when the printhead is near the end of its life or has a failed element. Order the printhead before the printer stops; we can fit it on site or at our Chennai office.
A mobile computer scans in the demo app but not in yours
On Zebra mobile computers, scans reach an app through DataWedge; an app usually needs its own DataWedge profile before it gets scans. Other makers have their own scan settings. Tell us the app and the model, and we will set it up. More fixes: mobile computer troubleshooting guide.
After you buy
Warranty and service contracts
Maker warranty
Warranty terms are set by each maker and differ by model and part. In India, Zebra covers printheads for 3 months or 30 km of printing, and the ZD230A for one year. Send the serial number with every service call so we can check its warranty.
Service contracts
Ask our team for the terms of a service contract for your devices. Tell us the models and how many you use.
Printheads
Printer stopped because of the printhead?
We supply printheads for all the printers we sell and service, whoever sold you the printer. Many are in stock in Chennai; others are ordered in for you, which usually takes 2 to 3 weeks. Call us first when a printer has stopped: we check stock before you order, and can fit it for you.
Do you service printers and scanners bought from another supplier?
Yes. We service the brands we sell, Zebra, Honeywell, Newland, TSC, Godex and TVS, whoever sold you the device.
Do you come to our site?
We can, when work has stopped. If it can wait, bringing the device to our Chennai office usually costs less. We agree the way that suits your urgency and budget.
What does a repair cost?
Repairs are free while the device is under the maker's warranty or a service contract with Allmark. Outside that, we tell you what is wrong and what it will cost before any paid work, and the repair starts only when you say yes.
How do I know if my device is under warranty?
Send us the serial number from the label on the device, with the invoice number or purchase date if you have it, and we will check.
Can you replace the printhead on my label printer?
Yes. Send the printer model and serial number; we confirm the right printhead, check stock and can fit it. See printheads by printer model.
Is it worth repairing an old printer or scanner?
Sometimes not. If a repair would cost close to a new unit, or the maker no longer supports the model, we say so and show you both options. The choice is yours.
