Most problems are identified on the message display when they occur. The corrective action to take is listed in the appropriate table as follows:

Note that the printer status messages do not require operator intervention.

6.1 Error Skip Procedure

The DEClaser 2100 printer alerts you to error conditions by stopping the printer, placing it off line, and displaying the type of error on the control panel. Some error conditions need to be corrected immediately before printing can continue, for example, 12 PRINTER OPEN. You can acknowledge other types of errors and still continue printing by using the Error Skip key. When these type of errors occur you may elect to take the long-term corrective action (for example, adding RAM or reassigning memory) at another time.
