Table B-1. Actions and Warnings

W-MD-4 Media Advance/Drive Too Media advance motor is too slow. Slow

Determine the cause of the drag on the media advance servo motor. Lis- ten for unusual noises coming from the grit roll shaft which might indi- cate sticking or binding. Advance the media with a supply loop in the media supply to eliminate media supply spool tension problems. As a last resort, disengage the motor from the grit roll shaft gear and attempt a media advance. The motor encoder will still report that the media is moving, and with no load the motor should easily reach the desired speed.

A-MS-2

- Media Thickness Increased

The media being printed is too thick. Reload with a media less than 0.125

A-MS-3 - Media Too Far Left/Right

Media is loaded too far to the left or

Reload the media; align right edge to reference mark.

(PC) Printing Calibrations

A-PC-1 - Too Many Jets Mapped Out Too many missing jets could be replaced.

Prime/clean printheads (page 5-10), or increase number of passes (page 3-7).

W-PC-1 - Printhead Removed -

A printhead was repositioned.

Run AutoSet (page 2-7).

W-PC-2 - Media Replaced -
