Mechanical Error | : If the printer mechanism has a greater load due to a paper jam, etc., the buzzer |
| will sound and the ERROR lamp will blink to stop the printer mechanism. |
Paper End | : If the paper has run out, the paper sensor in the paper path near the print head |
| will detect the end of the paper roll, turn on the buzzer, and illuminate the |
| ERROR lamp to stop the printer mechanism. If the paper is inserted into the |
| paper path, the paper roll will be loaded. (See 4.7 Inserting the Paper) |
Paper Near End | : If the paper is running out, the paper near end sensor will be activated to turn on |
| the buzzer and make the ERROR lamp blink. Even after the paper near end is |
| detected, a command can be used to print by the specified number of lines. (See |
| a description on the command for setting the number of print lines after paper |
| near end detection) |
Cutter Motor Lock | : If the cutter position detection sensor in the cutter unit is left turned on or off |
(iDP3421/23 only) | for approx. 1 second while the cutter motor is running, cutter operation and |
| printing will be suspended, determining it to be motor lock. |
