5.2 Correcting Simple Problems
How to Use This Section
1. Find the category in which your problem occurs. The problem categories
are:
Power-related Problems
No Printout
Operation-related Problems
Print-related Problems
Ribbon or Carriage-related Problems
For example, if the print appears very light on the paper, look at
Section 5.2.4, Print-related Problems.
2. Find the symptom description that most closely matches the printer
symptom. In this example you would look at the symptom "Print faint
or of poor quality."
3. Try the first suggestion under that heading.
4. If the suggestion does not cure the problem, try the next suggestion.
5. If none of the suggestions enable you to continue printing, or if the fault is
not listed, contact your Digital office.
Each time the printer is switched On, the indicators turn on while the internal
self-tests are run. Look at all the indicators to make sure that they are all
working. If an internal fault is detected, the Fault indicator will flash.
If any indicators are faulty, or if the Fault indicator flashes, contact your
Digital sales representative.
