4.5 Error Indications
l
Paper End
If the paper ends, the ERROR LED lights and a buzzer sounds. Load a new paper
roll. The buzzer may not sound depending on the memory switch setting.
l
Cover Open
If the cover is opened, the ERROR LED lights.
The buzzer may also sound depending on the memory switch setting.
Do not open the cover during printing. If the cover is accidentally opened, the
ERROR LED flashes. Check the paper, pull it straight out of the printer by a couple of
centimeters, and then close the cover. Printing restarts. A command must be sent to
restart printing depending on the memory switch setting.

the cause and press the FEED key. If the auto cutter still does not move and the pa-

l
Print Head Hot
Dense printing, heavy black printing, and continuous printing in a high temperature
environment increase the temperature of the print head. When the print head ex-
ceeds a certain temperature, the printer stops printing and waits until the temperature
of the print head decreases. The ERROR LED flashes during this time. When the
temperature decreases, printing restarts automatically.
