Status And Fault Messages - IBM 6400 - Model 008 B/W Line-matrix Printer Operator's Manual

Status and Fault Messages

When a fault occurs, the Attention indicator
flashes, the alarm sounds (if the alarm option
is set to ENABLE), and a specific message
appears in the display. When this happens,
correct the fault immediately.
not
Pressing any key on the operator panel will
silence the alarm. Pressing the Form Feed
key will silence the alarm and cause the
paper to move. The top-of-form setting will
be lost.
You can correct most faults by performing a
simple procedure, such as clearing a paper
jam or reloading paper. For more serious
faults, however, call an IBM service
representative.
Fault Ranking
The message display shows only one error
at a time. If multiple errors occur, the errors
are prioritized to determine which error is
displayed. After one error is fixed, the next
error is displayed.
