Error Messages
There are nine possible error messages that can appear in the display.
These messages are divided into two types, those that will return to
normal operation once displayed (
Err 0 thru Err 5 ), and those that
require immediate attention ( Err 6 thru Err 9 ).
Err 0 thru Err 5
When one of the following errors occur, the CP-3000 will display the
error message and may beep. After the beeps, the message will
disappear and the unit will return to normal operation. These messages
are used as warnings that there may be a problem that does not require
immediate attention.
Leap Year Error
February 29th is programmed for a non-leap year. If this occurs, the date
will automatically be changed to March 1st of that year. Please check
your programmed year, month and date. This message can also be
cleared by performing a Reset (Clear All).
Printing or Ribbon Error
The time card sensors could not detect the Column Position Block .
Possible reasons are:

The imprint quality (black color) is poor or too light. Replace the
ribbon cassette.

No ribbon cassette is inside the machine. Install a ribbon
cassette.

The ribbon cassette is not seated correctly in the printer carriage.
Reinstall the ribbon cassette.

The red color is active in front of the dot head. This is due to
normal interference between slider and printer carriage. Push
slider to normal position.
