Head Jam Information (continued)
Heading Description
Direction Indicates which way the head was moving, left is toward the
home position and right is away from the home position.
Home position is at the extreme left, toward the green thumb
wheel.
Speed Indicates the acceleration speed of the printhead when the
jam occurred.
Step The acceleration step at the jam. 0 means no steps were
taken, 15 means all steps were taken. 1-14 indicates the
printer jammed during acceleration or deceleration.
Temp The ambient temperature at the last head jam. The
temperature is listed in Celsius.
Position Position of carriage at the time of the jam in 1/720 in = 12 *
step position. Divide the number by 12 to get the step
position. There are 512 steps across the page. If it is jammed
at position 0, check the printer mechanism alignment. If it is
jamming in the middle, it is more likely a dirty ribbon or
obstruction in the printhead's path.
• Head Dot Pattern (line 37)
Is used to verify the individual dot wires. There should be nine dots.
If some dots are missing, it could be a printhead failure or a circuit
board failure.
