4.6 Error Indication

Paper end

Paper empty is detected in two steps: paper near-end and paper end. It causes the ERROR LED to light. If paper end is detected, refill the paper. If the paper cover is open, a paper-end is detected.

Paper cover open

When the paper cover is opened, Paper cover open is detected and the ERROR LED goes on.

During printing, do not open the paper cover. If you open the paper cover accidentally, the ERROR LED blinks. Confirm the paper and close the cover. Printing resumes automatically.

Thermal head overheat

When you print dense characters or dark image, the head temperature rises. If the head temperature exceeds a specified level, the printer stops printing operation and waits till the head temperature is lowered. During waiting, the ERROR LED blinks. When the head temperature is lowered, printing resumes automatically.

The status of LED, lighting or blinking, including other errors is shown below.
