Recoverable errors

Although normal printer operation is no longer possible when recoverable errors occur, they do not represent printer failure.You can recover from a recoverable error by turning on the power switch or issuing a command from the driver after eliminating the cause.

Note:

*1: Use the memory switch Msw8-8 to determine the cover open error as an automatically recoverable error or a recoverable error. (Factory default setting is Recoverable Error.)

*2: With the TM-L90, if an autocutter error occurs due to a paper jam, turn off the power, remove the jammed paper, and turn the power on again.

*3: When a paper layout error occurs causing by jamming paper while printing, turn the power off and remove the jammed paper, then turn the power on again.

You can easily set the paper layout by using the automatic paper layout setting. Refer to "Memory Switch Functions" on page 2-35.

Error recover command is valid only when a recoverable error (excluding automatically recoverable errors) occurs. When a recoverable error occurs, you can recover from the error by sending an error recover command from the driver after eliminating the cause of the error; you do not need to turn on the power switch again.
