<Error Details>
Head-up ----- Occurs when the head-up lever is raised. The printer cannot feed the paper or print.
The parallel interface outputs BUSY and FAULT, and serial interface DTR,
respectively.
Head overheat ----- If the temperature of the printing head rises (About 60°C or more), in order to
protect it against overheating, a printing head temperature sensor will be activated to
stop printing. The parallel interface outputs BUSY and FAULT, and serial interface
DTR, respectively. If the temperature drops (About 55°C), printing will be
automatically resumed.
Paper near end -----If the diameter of the paper roll decreases, the paper near end sensor will react to
inform you that the paper roll is running out. See "4.8 Paper Near End Function".
Paper end ----- If the paper roll runs out, the paper sensor near the printing head will react to stop
printing. See "4.7 Paper End Function".
Label paper error ----- Occurs if you set the thermal paper or non-specified label paper, when the label
paper has been selected. The parallel interface outputs BUSY and FAULT, and
serial interface DTR, respectively.
3. FEED switch
