Step
Questions/Actions
Check to see if the customer loads forms beyond the
16.
tractors so that they block the paper presence sensor.
Does the customer load forms far enough to block the
sensor?
Examine the sensors and the area around the sensors for
17.
pieces of paper or chad, which the printer will sense as
forms.
Is there chad?
Yes
Remove and reload the forms
so that the leading edge of the
forms is near the square drive
shaft on the tractor assembly.
Show the customer that this is
the correct way to mount the
forms.
The 099 message occurred
because the printer sensors
were already sensing forms in
the path when the customer
tried to load forms.
Vacuum or blow out all the
chad.
Wipe the sensor with antistatic
liquid (IBM P/N 2200118).
If you judge the amount of
chad to be excessive, advise
the customer to:
v Frequently clean out the
chad.
v Ask the forms supplier to
reduce the chad.
No
Go to step 17.
