4.7 Error Indication

●Paper-end

Paper empty is detected in two steps: paper-end and paper near-end(factory option). It causes the PAPER LED to light. If paper-end is detected, replace the paper roll.

●Cover open error

When the printer cover is opened, Printer cover open is detected and the ERROR LED goes on.

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

●Head overheat error

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.

●Cutter lock error

If the cutter blade stops operating due to paper jam or the like, the ERROR LED blinks.

Remove the cause of the trouble and press the FEED button. If the blade does not move and the cover does not open yet even in the above procedure, follow the procedure in section 4.4 to open the paper cover.
