Printronix P9000 Series manual Fault Condition Messages, Operator Correctable Faults

Fault Condition Messages

If a fault condition occurs in the printer, the CHECK light illuminates, the status lamps blink alternately, and the first line of the message display reads FAULT CONDITION. If confiF gured, an alarm will sound when the Fault Condition occurs. The second line of the display will show the specific fault. (If the specific fault description requires two lines, the message FAULT CONDITION will not be shown.) Displayed faults fall into one of two categories:

DOperator correctable faults

DField service required

NOTE: The alarm can be turned off before the fault is cleared by pressing the CLEAR switch.

Operator Correctable Faults

Printer problems that the operator can correct are self-explanatory and appear on the second line of the display:

PAPER OUT	SHUTTLE STALL
PLATEN OPEN	COVER OPEN
PAPER JAM	COOLING
CHANGE RIBBON

After correcting an operator correctable fault, press the CLEAR switch before placing the printer on line. If any other fault messages appear without an asterisk (*), press the CLEAR switch to continue. However, if this problem persists, contact your authorized service represenF tative to correct the problem permanently.

- IMPORTANT -

If NVM INITIALIZED PRESS CLEAR appears on the display every time the printer power is cycled, non-volatile memory must be replaced. Non-volatile memory can be temporarily bypassed by pressing the CLEAR switch. However, no configuration data may be saved, and the factory default is loaded. Contact your authorized service representative to correct the fault permanently.
