If you are still unable to solve your problem, please contact the company where you purchased your printer

Error Messages
Whenever the printer detects an error condition, the Error Indicator will either flash or go to a steady on
condition. The indicator flashes for errors that can be easily corrected such as Check Paper or Paper Door
Open.
The indicator will stay on without flashing for errors that cannot be recovered without loss of data. These are
typically caused by interface configuration errors such as serial handshaking, or baud rate, and will require that
the printer be turned off to clear the error.
Message Possible Cause Solution
Media supply is empty. Install new roll or cassette.
Check Paper
Paper/Black Mark sensor is dirty. Clean the Black Mark sensor.
Refer to “
Cleaning” on page 39.
Paper Door Open Paper door not fully closed. Make sure the door is fully closed
by opening the door and closing it
again until the door “clicks”
closed. Check the platen roller for
damage.
Parity Error Serial I/O not configured correctly. Verify that the parity selection
made in the Serial Interface Setup
Menu matches the setting on the
host system.

again. If the error repeats, the
