Ribbon Errors:
Check that the print ribbon has not 'run out'. Lock and then unlock
the print head assembly; this resynchronises the ribbon automatically. When using
a colour ribbon, it should advance automatically so that the leading edge of the
yellow panel is beneath the print head. Ensure that the correct ribbon type has
been specified in the Windows driver.
Card Feed & Mechanical Errors:
Ensure that the card thickness adjustment has
been set-up correctly to allow one card to feed.
