Hardware Error
A hardware error has been detected.
Immediately turn off the power to the printer and contact your
retailer.
This product does not have a broken head element check function so if there are vertical white
lines that you suspect are caused by a broken head element, clean the thermal head and then
perform a print check in the sample print mode.
If the white line problem is not resolved, the head element may be broken.
