    Error (LED) When this indicator light is on(but not blinking), it means that the printer is out of paper or almost out of paper or the printer covers are open. When this light blinking, there is an error. If you see this light blinking, turn off the printer for a few seconds and then turn it black on.
  • Page 11: Self Test

    The test is independent of any other equipment or software, so it is a good idea to run it when you first set up the printer or if you have any trouble. If the self test works correctly, the problem is in the other equipment or the software, not the printer.
  • Page 12: The Printer Stops Printing

    2-2. The printer stops printing. • If the Error light is on (but not blinking), the printer is off line. Check to see that the covers are closed and check the paper state. See Chapter 1 for instructions on installing or replacing the paper roll.

    To use the hexadecimal dump feature, follow these steps: 1) After you make sure that the printer is off, open the front cover of the printer. 2) Hold down the Feed button while you turn on the printer.
  • Page 14: Changing The Dip Switch Setting

    Changes in DIP switch settings are recognized only when the printer power is turned on or when the printer is reset by using the interface. If the DIP switch setting is changed after the printer power is turned on, the change does not take effect until the printer is turned on again or is reset.
