EPSON Stylus COLOR 860/1160

1.4.6 Errors

o
Ink Out
When the printer runs out most of the ink of any color, it indicates ink-low
and keeps printing. When the printer runs out the whole ink of any color, it
stops printing and indicates ink-out error. User is then requested to install a
new ink-cartridge in this state. An ink-cartridge that has been taken out
once should never be used again. Re-installation of the cartridge not filled
fully upsets the ink level detection and may eventually cause a serious
problem in the print head.
o
Paper Out
When the printer fails to load a sheet, it goes into a paper out error.
o
Paper Jam
When the printer fails to eject a sheet, it goes into a paper jam error.
o
No Ink-Cartridge
When the printer detects that ink-cartridge comes off, it goes into this error
mode.
o
Maintenance Request
When the total amount of ink wasted through cleanings and flushing
reaches to the limit, printer indicates this error and stops. In such a case,
the absorber in the printer enclosure needs to be replaced with new one by
service personnel.
o
Fatal Errors
Carriage control error or CG access error.
