Table 5 Printed Overstrike Error Messages
The printer software attempted to write to or read from the
RFID tag, but the RFID encoder indicated that the tag could
not be written to or read from.
The printer software temporarily lost communication with the
RFID encoder, or communication between the printer soft-
ware and the RFID encoder was not synchronized and had to
be forced.
This failure occurs only when the Precheck Tags is enabled.
It indicates that the RFID tag was automatically failed since it
did not contain the correct pre-programmed quality code.
