Solving High Capacity Feeder Problems

Interlock switches monitor the position of printer doors and covers. When a door is closed, the interlock switch is activated and the high capacity feeder can operate. When a door is open, the interlock switch is not activated and the high capacity feeder cannot operate. If a door is not firmly closed, the interlock switch can bounce between being activated and being not activated - confusing the system and causing erratic operation.

2.Reinstall the printer driver software.

The printer driver software running on the host computer may be damaged. Reinstalling the software is an easy and inexpensive way to isolate or eliminate the problem. Refer to the DRIVERS folder on the Electronic Library CD-ROM for detailed instructions on installing the drivers.

3.Call your service technician.

This problem may be caused by a malfunctioning or broken component that requires service.
