Problem
Solution
No paper is loaded in the selected
paper source.
Load paper in the printer or select a
different paper source; the Paper Out
light goes off. Then press the Pause
button; the Pause light goes off and
the printer starts printing.
The paper is not loaded correctly.
Remove your paper and reload it
correctly. See the Reference Guide.
The paper release lever is set to the
wrong position.
Set the paper release lever to the
position for the paper source you want
to use. If paper from another paper
source is currently in the paper path,
press the Load/Eject button to eject
the paper; then move the paper
release lever to the desired position.
A single sheet of paper is not fully
ejected.
Press the Load/Eject button to eject
the sheet.
Continuous paper is not fed to the
standby position.
Tear off the printed page at the
perforation; then press Load/Eject to
feed the paper to the standby position.
Paper is jammed in the printer.
To clear the paper jam, see page 14.
The print head is overheated.
Wait a few minutes; the printer
resumes printing automatically once
the print head cools.
An unknown or fatal printer error has
occurred.
Turn off the printer and leave it off for
several minutes; then turn on the
printer again.
Selecting a Font and Pitch
Usually, you use your application program to select the font and
pitch you want to use in a document. However, you can select
one of the printer's five fonts (in different pitches) with the
buttons on the printer's control panel, as described below.
Note: Settings you make in application programs usually override
settings you make from the printer's control panel. For best results,
use your application to select a font and make other settings.
The available pitch depends on the font you select. See the table
below for more information.
