Error Messages
If the printer is unable to print for some reason, an alarm sounds, the error indicator
lights up and an error message appears on the display. Furthermore, a warning
message appears on the bottom of the display when you are required to take some
sort of action, even though there is no problem with the print job. When these types
of messages are displayed, take the following actions in response.
IMPORTANT
•
When multiple warning messages occur at the same time, the messages are displayed
alternately.
•
When an error message occurs at the same time as a warning message, the warning
message is not displayed.
•
When [
] in the set-up menu is set to [
], a message with <
Warning
message
> symbol is not displayed.
•
When a message with the <
Error skip
> symbol is displayed, press [
] to bypass
the error and continue printing. However if you do this, print data may be lost or the data
may not be printed correctly. If you want to cancel the procedure, perform a soft reset to
remove the cause of the problem and then press [
] to print the data again.
Furthermore, messages marked with this symbol can be automatically skipped by setting
[
] in the set-up menu to [
].
