Explanation:
The printer is in Offline condition and nonprinted data is in the buffer.
Corrective Action:
There is no corrective action required. Under normal conditions, the
printer continues to print when it is placed back Online. If you do not
want the buffered data to print, enter the Clear menu by depressing the
Clear key before going back Online and select the Clear Buffers entry to
clear the buffered data.
Explanation:
The printer is in Offline condition and Dump Mode is enabled.
Corrective Action:
No corrective action is necessary. Place the printer back Online when
you are ready to print.
Explanation:
The printer is receiving downloaded fonts or VFU information.
Corrective Action:
This message will clear when the download is complete.
Explanation:
The printer is ready to accept and print data from the host through
Dump Mode. All data received from the host will be printed in hexadeci-
mal format.
Corrective Action:
No corrective action is required.
Explanation:
An excessive number of bytes has been sent by the host in a VFU
download.
Corrective Action:
Correct data and retransmit from host.
Explanation:
The control processor has detected that the paper has failed to move the
required distance after sending a command to the Paper Drive Motor.
Corrective Action:
Check for paper feed problems. If there are any paper feed problems,
correct them, then press the Clear key to clear the fault. If there are no
paper feed problems and the condition does not clear, call your Cus-
tomer Service Representative.
Explanation:
Paper is not being detected by the Paper Out sensor.
Corrective Action:
If this message is correct, refer to the Paper Loading sections in Chapter
2, then load paper. If the fault does not clear, call your Customer Service
Representative for repair.
Explanation:
Parity is enabled and a mismatch on Bit 8, between the computer and
the printer, has been detected on the currently active host interface.
Corrective Action:
If there is a mismatch between the setting of the printer and the setting
of the host, you can change printer parity. See the Config Menu section
in Chapter 3.
If there is no mismatch between the printer and host settings, then the
data sent from the host has been corrupted. Retransmit the data from
the host. If the condition repeats, set up the printer for Dump Mode (see
the Config Menu section in Chapter 3), and retransmit the data again. If
you find no errors in the Dump Mode data, call your Customer Service
Representative for repair.
Explanation:
Faulty communication between the main and control processor has
occurred causing a dot row to misprint. The printer automatically
recovers from this condition.
Corrective Action:
Under normal circumstances there is no corrective action other than to
depress the Clear key to remove the fault message from the display. If,
however, this problem persists, call your Customer Service Representa-
tive for repair.
Explanation:
Caused when Rbn Monitor has reached its set level.
