Common Error Conditions

Whenever the printer detects an error condition, it will automatically go off
line. User correctable errors are “flashed” on the display. These errors can
typically be recovered from without loss of data and are listed in this section
of the manual.

Other errors which typically result in loss of data are considered fatal errors.
These errors display the word ERROR on the top line of the display and do
not flash. These errors are listed in the “Troubleshooting” section of this
manual.

Check Paper

This error is caused either by running out of paper or by a paper jam. The
printer will attempt to determine the cause of a paper problem and
accompany the “Check Paper” message with “Paper Out”,
“Paper Jam”, or “Paper Out/Jam”.

It is not necessary to press the UNLOAD button. If your printer is a
FormsMaster 8003se, you may access the tractor path with the error by
simply tilting any tractors in front of that path forward (see “

Loading the

Center Tractors

” on page 18).

If the error is caused by a paper jam, remove the jammed form. If the form
remaining in the tractors has tears along the top edge, remove it from the
tractors, tear it off, and place the next form in the tractors.

If the error is caused by running out of paper, simply place a new box in the
print stand and place the first form in the tractors.
