For details, see section 9-2, "Removing Paper Jams".
(2) Errors that the printer cannot recover from
Error description
Cutter error
Flash memory error
EEPROM error
SRAM error
Head thermistor error
Power voltage error
Note 1: If an unrecoverable error occurs, turn the power off immediately.
2: A power voltage error may be a result of a power supply malfunction.
If other unrecoverable errors occur, contact your dealer for repairs.
* When an error occurs, an audio error message is played. For details, see section 8-4, "Audio Error Messages".
