Error Codes
The most common error codes transmitted by the Printer are
described below.
Lower case “c” Printer received a data byte from the host that contains a
framing error (corrupted) due to noise.
Lower case "e" Memory module won't clear. Retry after a <STX> W
command.
Lower case “v” Input buffer overflow.
Upper case “I” This means that an invalid command sequence was sent to
the Printer. The Printer did not understand the command
sequence and terminated the command interpreter.
Upper case “R” This code will be sent every time the Printer is turned on,
this means there was a hardware reset.
Upper case “T” This means that the Printer has had a watchdog time-out
condition. This is how a software reset occurs. A software
reset is made by sending the command sequence to the
Printer or by doing a front panel reset.
BELL HEX “07” This is usually returned on a corrupt image download, or if
you try to load an image that is already installed in the
module.
