Problem

Statements do not print on the event notification station printer when the event status
changes.

Possible Cause

Power to the printer may be off. The printer may be off-line or out of paper. The messages
may not be configured properly in BASIC code. The modem may not be functioning
properly.

Solution

Turn the printer on, load the paper, and set it to

on-line.

Call the modem with a regular telephone to ensure that it answers and is ready to receive.

Verify the message configurations in BASIC code.

If the problem is not resolved, follow the procedures described earlier in this section
regarding monitor and modem connection problems.

corrected.
