Probable Cause

AutomaticQC cartridge after
replacing the cartridge or at
power up.
The printer is out of paper.
You selected the external printer
for a printout but you have not
configured Microsoft Windows
with a default external printer.
The system does not detect the
reagent cartridge.
The system is unable to detect a
sample at FD1.
The system does not detect the
waste bottle.
Corrective Action
If the AutomaticQC cartridge
was just installed, the cartridge
may not be installed correctly or
it could be a system problem.
Replace the AutomaticQC
cartridge as described Replacing
the AutomaticQC Cartridge‚
page 2-3.
If you are not able to replace the
cartridge, continue running
patient samples with the
AutomaticQC turned off. For
information about AutomaticQC
Options, refer to Setting up

If necessary, use the Recall menu
to locate and print results or data
that were not printed while the

installed correctly.
Reinstall the cartridge.
Replace the reagent cartridge.

leaks in tubing, or if tubing is
disconnected.

check for leaks in the sample
tubing.

system.
