Generally, a user cannot clear errors caused by defective printer hardware because usually, the printer does not restart. Therefore, when a fatal error occurs, immediately call your repair service center. For preliminary identification help of the fatal error types possible, please read the information below.
If a fatal error occurs, the printer enters one of the following states:
•If printing is in progress, it is stopped immediately.
•The ONLINE indicator goes off, and the printer goes offline.
•The PAPER OUT indicator blinks, and the alarm buzzer sounds.
•One of the FONT LEDs light up, thus indirectly indicating the alarm type (see table
