Kodak 1200I manual Job Pause - Out Of Paper, Paper Not Loaded, Job Pause - E.O.M. Detected

KODAK 1200i WIDE-FORMAT PRINTING SYSTEM

JOB PAUSE - OUT OF PAPER!

The system detected the end of media. The current job should be cleared and media reloaded. ‘Feeder Stop’ is the default mode and will pause printing when the printer cannot unwind enough media to block the leg sensor. The media feed (upper) sensor is used for the Roll and Takeup supply modes, the takeup (lower) sensor performs the operation when in the Roll 2 mode. If ‘Feeder Stop’ is activated and a problem persists then check for proper bracket alignment, plug connectivity and sensor operation using the diagnostic ‘Legs Test’. Replace motor or sensor as necessary.

PAPER NOT LOADED!

During a media load the system could not find paper. Cycle power to the printer. The user should insert or reposition the media and ‘Load Media’ again. Clean carriage paper sensor, refer to Internal Shutdown: Carriage Axis Error above, item number 5. Thoroughly clean platen cutter groove and ensure no scratches or knife cut marks are visible at base of cutter groove.

JOB PAUSE - E.O.M. DETECTED!

This is user selectable feature. ‘End of Media’ options are ‘Feeder Stop’ or ‘Normal’. ‘Feeder Stop’ is the default and will pause printing when the printer cannot unwind enough media to block the leg sensor. This feature is very handy while printing unattended (especially if the end of media is securely taped to the roll). The user can press ‘Pause’ to continue printing but the alarm will remain until new roll of media is loaded.

CAUTION: When set to ‘Normal’ this stop feature is disabled and the operator runs the risk of running out of media during a large print job, this can ultimately result in ink being printed across a bare platen surface. Furthermore, this could lead to severe ink leaks into the platen and dryer component areas leading to possible component damage. Therefore the ‘Normal’ mode is not a suggested for print operations due to the dangers involved.

EMPTY WASTE BOTTLE NOW!

Typically the waste bottle should be removed and emptied or the access door is open. The spring-loaded floor of the auto clean unit controls this sensor activation.

1.Ensure auto clean unit door spring is working correctly and is closed. Check both wiring connections at base of printer (auto clean unit screws will need to be loosened to allow for auto cleaning unit lowering. NOTE: remove waste bottle first! Do not drop unit or damage to wiring may result).

2.Bottle full sensor may be defective; contact technical support for assistance.
