1.5 Items To Be Confirmed Before Going To FIP Troubleshooting
Basic Printer Problems
Some printer problems can be easy to resolve. If a problem occurs with your printer, check each the fol-
lowing:
1)
If a message is displayed on the LCD of operator panel, see “2.3 Status Code List”.
2) The printer power cable is plugged into the printer and a properly grounded electrical outlet.
3) The printer power is powered ON.
4) The electrical outlet is not turned off by any switch or breaker.
5) Other electrical equipment plugged into the outlet is working.
6) All options are properly installed.
7) If you have checked all of the above and still have a problem, turn off the printer, wait for 10 sec-
onds, and then turn on the printer. This often solves the problem.

Flow 97, or "FIP-AC" and "FIP-DC" in "6. Other FIP".
a) Turn off the printer, wait for 10 seconds, and turn on the printer.
b) Self Test Message appears on the operator panel. When the test is completed, “Ready to
Print” is displayed.

below.
Settings in the software program, the printer driver, or the printer utilities are overriding the set-
tings made on the operator panel.
a) Change the menu settings from the printer driver, the printer utilities, or the software pro-
gram instead of the operator panel.
b) Disable the settings in the printer driver, the printer utilities, or the software program so you

rect.

problem, use PostScript driver when using the PCL driver.
