Printing Problems

Machine won't print

Machine is in seal-only mode

This mode disables printing. Press

Home

to return to Home screen

and resume printing.

Digital meter stamp is incomplete or streaked; poor print quality

Print nozzles clogged

The print nozzles may be clogged. Perform a print purge in an effort

to fix the problem see

If printer maintenance fails to correct the problem, call your machine

supplier. You may have to replace the printhead.

IMPORTANT:

Always ensure that your prints are clear

and complete. Poor prints may be rejected by Royal Mail.

If you notice missing lines in the print as shown in the

illustration, perform a printhead purge as described on

page 7-14 of this guide.

The indicia above is a black and white representation of the approved

Blue indicia. Only Blue Non-Fluorescent approved ink should be used
