Printing is out of Alignment 

 

When the printing is going beyond the page length, please verify the page size settings 
of the printer output software.

When the printing is not off by a full line but is slipping just a little bit, it may be a 
failure in the paper roller due to wear. Please contact the sales agent. 

 

Ink Printing is Too Light 

 

Please change the ink ribbon cassette. 

 

Wrinkles between the Braille Dots 

 

If you are doing your printing in places which are high in humidity, wrinkles between 
the Braille dots may occur.    Please try printing on a day where the weather is good or 
in a dry location or try using the low speed print mode. 

 

Stops during Printing 

 

If the PC is configured for usage of a screen saver or system standby, or to cut the power 
to the hard drive, there are cases where it may not be possible to print a long document. 
If you are printing long documents, please configure the PC so that the power 
management always keeps the power on. 
If there is a paper jam, turn off the power. When you reboot the printer, the paper lock 
will be released as part of the initialization sequence. Afterwards, turn the power back 
on again and eject the clogged paper by using the Paper Cutter Handle. 
If communications are through the RS-232C interface, please verify that the settings on 
the host side are configured for “Using Flow Control”.
