Print Head
Your printer has a 9-wire print head. The print head is bidirectional
(prints left to right and right to left).
If there is a problem with the print head, contact your IBM service
representative.
Problem Determination
Appendix B, “Problem Solving” has codes and problem information.
The most probable cause of a printer problem is listed first. There is
also an inspection procedure for the forms devices to help you find
and remove paper jams. If you cannot resolve the problem using
this information, contact your service representative.
Relocation Instructions
Be sure that you tape or tie down the print head and use foam or
some other material as padding. Reinstall the shipping brace if
possible (see page 1-5).
