Follow this guide to increase the darkness of a zebra printer (GX420t or TLP 2824 Plus) that is printing temp tags. Sometimes the default for these printers can make them print faded tags that cannot be read by barcode scanners.

1. Open the Control Panel.

2. Click View Devices & Printers.

3. Locate your printer in the list of printers.
