Correctable Errors

ERROR NO. 10: Swing-Gate Open

This error number indicates that the printer’s swing-gate is not fully
closed. Push the swing-gate handle down firmly to close.

ERROR NO. 11: Out of Paper

Error number 11 indicates that the printer is out of paper. A paper-out
condition is detected in the lower left tractor due to the absence

of paper. When paper-out is sensed, the printer finishes printing

the current page, advances to the Top of Form, indicates error 11

(paper-out) and then goes “off-line” until paper is reloaded. This
error clears when either the

is pressed following paper reloading. No data is lost when paper-out
occurs.

If you set forms length in programmable VFC, make sure the same
setting is entered in the front panel. Otherwise, the printer will
continue to print when paper out occurs. This results in a loss of
data. Refer to the HP256X Technical Reference Manual, 02564-90905,

for more information on programmable VFC.

ERROR NO. 12: Ribbon Jam

information about proper installation of the ribbon. After the ribbon jam

I This procedure clears the error from the display and gets the

printer ready so that it can be placed “on-line” and normal operation
resumed. If you are using an HP-IB interface on an HP3000, the display

may indicate number “2” and may take several minutes to recover after

a paper jam. This is because the printer must recycle through the job
until it reaches the point where the paper jam occurred. DO NOT
DISTURB THE JOB OR PRINTER! The time required for this process
varies with the size of the job and the computer system work load.
