ERROR MESSAGES

Printer Status

The printer will print the following error messages:

ERROR:2

= Form related error

ERROR:3

= Graphics related error

BATTERY LOW

= Replace Memory Cartridge battery

Note:
Error:2 and Error:3 usually mean an invalid syntax or memory
overflow has occurred.

HINT!
If a persistent programming error occurs or the printer starts to
behave in an unexpected way, it can often be remedied by turning
the power off and on.
