4.5 Error Indications

 Paper end, paper near-end
The end of the roll of paper is detected at two stages, paper near-end and paper-
end.
When paper near-end is detected, the PAPER LED flashes. Prepare a new paper
roll.
When paper end is detected, the PAPER LED lights and the buzzer sounds. Load
a new paper roll. Memory switch settings can be used to disable the buzzer.
 Cover open
When the cover is open, the COVER LED lights and the buzzer sounds.
Memory switch settings can be used to disable the buzzer.
Do not open the paper cover during printing. If the paper cover is opened by
mistake, the COVER LED lights or flashes. Check the paper and pull a few cm of
paper straight out of the printer before closing the cover. Printing resumes.
Sending a command to resume printing may be required depending on the
memory switch setting.
 Cutter locked
If the auto cutter cannot move because of a paper jam or something else, the
CUTTER LED flashes. Remove the cause of the trouble and press the FEED
button. If the auto cutter still does not operate and the paper cover does not open,
refer to "4.2 Clearing a Cutter Error".
 Print head hot
When you print dense characters, dark images, or for an extended time in a hot
environment, the print head temperature increases. If the print head exceeds a
specified temperature, the printer stops printing and waits for the print head to
cool. When this happens, the PAPER LED, CUTTER LED, and COVER LED flash.
Printing resumes automatically when the print head cools.
