The paper near-end detector is an option.
ERROR (Red)
This light is on when the printer is off line. It blinks to indicate an

The blinking pattern shown below indicates that the temperature
of the print head is too high. The printer recovers automatically
and resumes printing when the head cools.
If the printer stops working and the
ERROR
light is blinking, turn
the printer off, check for jammed paper, and remove it by following
the instructions on page 3-3, if necessary. Then turn the printer
back on. If the printer still does not work, unplug the power supply
cord from the outlet immediately; then contact a qualified service
person.
