No finder patterns were detected.

Make sure that the image is displayed on the
screen correctly.

Check the printing of the reading code. Three
finder patterns in a corner may be stained or
damaged.

E001

Finder pattern detection
error (Two patterns were
not detected.)

Only one finder pattern was detected. (The
other two patterns were not detected.)

Check the printing of the reading code. Two
finder patterns may be stained or damaged.

The position of finder patterns can be con-
firmed on the monitor when 

Display Set-

tings/Finder Pattern is turned ON.

E002

Finder pattern detection
error (One pattern was
not detected.)

Only two finder patterns were detected. (One
pattern was not detected.)

One finder pattern may be stained or dam-
aged.

The position of finder patterns can be con-
firmed on the monitor when 

Display Set-

tings/Finder Pattern is turned ON.

E003

Finder pattern detection
error (The relative
positioning is incorrect.)

Three finder patterns were detected.
However, the relative positioning of the three
finder patterns is incorrect.

The code may be bent or part of the finder
patterns may be stained or damaged.

The position of finder patterns can be con-
firmed on the monitor when 

Display Set-

tings/Finder Pattern is turned ON.

E004

Finder pattern detection
error (4 or more finder
patterns were detected.)

Too many finder patterns (4 or more) were
