2. LIST OF ERROR DISPLAY / INDICATION / TROUBLESHOOTING
Errors and warnings are displayed by the following ways:
1. Operator call errors are indicated by the Alarm LED lit in orange, and the error and its solution are displayed on the LCD in
text and by icon.
2. Messages during printing from a computer are displayed on the MP driver Status Monitor.
3. Error codes are printed in the "operator call/service call error record" area in EEPROM information print
Buttons valid when an operator call error occurs:
1. ON/OFF button: To turn the machine off and on again.
2. OK button: To clear and recover from an error. In some operator call errors, the error will automatically be cleared when
the cause of the error is eliminated, and pressing the OK button may not be necessary.
3. Stop/Reset button: To cancel the job at error occurrence, and to clear the error.

Notes on replacement
*1
- Before removal of the logic
board ass'y, remove the power
cord, and allow for approx. 1
minute (for discharge of
capacitor's accumulated
charges), to prevent damages to
the logic board ass'y.
- Before replacement, check the
ink absorber counter value (by
service test print or EEPROM
information print).
[See 3-4. Verification Items, (1)
Service test print for details.]
- The screws securing the
carriage rail are allowed to be
loosened only at carriage
replacement. Before removing
the screws, mark the positions
of the screws on the carriage rail
so that they will be returned to
their original positions after the
carriage is replaced.
Adjustment / settingsOperation check
After replacement:
1. Initialize the EEPROM.
2. Set the destination in the
EEPROM.
3. Set the ink absorber counter

*1: General notes:
- Make sure that the flexible cables and wires in the harness are in the proper position and connected correctly.
See 3-2. Special Notes on Repair Servicing or the Parts Catalog for details.
- Do not drop the ferrite core, which may cause damage.
- Protect electrical parts from damage due to static electricity.
- Before removing a unit, after removing the power cord, allow the machine to sit for approx. 1 minute (for capacitor discharging
to protect the logic board ass'y from damages).
- Do not touch the timing slit strip film and timing slit disk film. No grease or abrasion is allowed.
- Protect the units from soiled with ink.
- Protect the housing from scratches.
- Exercise caution with the screws, as follows:
i. The screws of the paper feed motor may be loosened only at replacement of the paper feed motor unit (DO NOT
loosen them in other cases).
ii. The screws securing the carriage rail may be loosened only at replacement of the carriage unit. After carriage
unit replacement, print on thick paper to confirm that the distance between the print head and paper (between the
carriage rail and the platen) is correct, and that the print head does not contact the paper during printing. If the
print head contacts the paper, adjust the carriage rail position, while referring to [3-3. Adjustment / Settings, (2)
Carriage rail adjustment.]
- Upon contact with the film,
wipe the film with ethanol.
- Confirm no grease is on the
film. (Wipe off any grease
thoroughly with ethanol.)
