Message

Explanation

 

 

54 Parallel Error

An IEEE 1284 protocol error is detected on the

 

parallel host interface, or due to a faulty cable.

 

Once a host interface error has been displayed

 

for the first time, reporting of further host

 

interface errors for the associated port is

 

suppressed until the interface parameters are

 

changed, or the printer is powered off.

 

Press Go to clear the message and continue

 

processing the print job. The job may not print

 

correctly. Verify that the correct cable is used. If

 

a serial error has occurred, be sure the serial

 

interface parameters (protocol, baud, parity and

 

data bits) are set correctly on the printer and

 

the host computer. If a parallel error has

 

occurred, check the cable connection between

 

the host and printer.

 

Press Menu> or Menu< to access the reset

 

function in the Busy/Waiting Menu group.

 

Menu Lockout does not prevent access to the

 

Busy/Waiting Menu group. The menu buttons

 

are not active when Reset Control is Off.

 

Press and hold Select and then press Return

 

to determine the exact cause of host interface

 

error.

 

If a serial error has occurred, a 16-bit error

 

code displays in hexadecimal on the second

 

line of the LCD. If bit 15 is on, a framing error

 

has occurred. If bit 14 is on, an overrun error

 

has occurred. If bit 13 is on, a parity error has

 

occurred.
