LED Error

Codes Q

The MAGICARD printer has extensive error trapping facilities, to provide the operator or service agent with fault diagnosis information.

READY and ERROR Indicator Flashing

The READY indicator flashing indicates that the printer is receiving and processing a file of image data.

If the ERROR indicator is also illuminated continuously, it indicates that the file of image data is incomplete and that the printer is waiting for the rest. If this need cannot be met (perhaps the PC develops a fault or is reset), then the printer must be rebooted by switching off then on again. Ensure that any files in the Windows Spooler are aborted first.

If the ERROR indicator is also flashing this condition indicates an error in the file downloaded from the PC and the printer must be powered down. To ensure that the error will not repeat after reset, abort the transfer on the PC before resetting the printer by opening and closing the lid.

MEDIA Indicator On

1.Dye film has run out.

2.The wrong dye film has been fitted with respect to the driver settings.

3.The dye film is jammed.
