Recommended Actione
Inspect the flex circuit and reconnect if the flex circuit is
loose. See Separating the Front and Back Cases on page 44.
Inspect the CPU PCB components and circuit board for
cracking, burning, or damage and replace the CPU PCB if
any are found. See CPU PCB or Display PCB Replacement
on page 46.
Replace the CPU PCB with a known good PCB. See CPU
PCB or Display PCB Replacement on page 46.
Install new batteries in the printer. See the printer
documentation.
Replace the Display PCB with a known good PCB.See CPU
PCB or Display PCB Replacement on page 46.
Replace the CPU PCB with a known good PCB. See CPU
PCB or Display PCB Replacement on page 46.
Attempt to print using a known good NPB-40. If the printer
still does not print, troubleshoot the printer. See the printer
documentation.
