The TAJIMA TFHX Series machine may not read the USB when you press A if:

1. The machine or the external device (USB) is not powered on in the correct order. The external device must be turned on before the machine.
2. Data transmission is attempted without confirming the machine is powered on.
3. You are attempting standby input during color change or frame traveling, which is not allowed.
4. There is insufficient memory capacity; if memory is full, code number 2BA will display and input will stop.
5. The USB is being accessed during floppy disk reading, which temporarily disables the operation panel.

Check power order, machine state, and memory capacity before proceeding.
