B. GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING SUGGESTIONS
The printer beeps just before each ribbon panel is printed.
■ This indicates the print ribbon is running low and that is will soon run out.
Print until the ribbon is gone and replace the ribbon when necessary (see
Section 4-B).
The printer doesn’t seem to work at all.
■ Make sure that the power cord is plugged in securely on both ends and that the
printer is ON. Confirm power is applied by pressing the On/Cancel button.
Also, be sure the printer is ready. The On and Ready LED lights should both be
illuminated when the printer is ready to print.
■ Make certain that the printer cable is securely connected. An error message in
the software application telling you that the printer is not responding is usually
due to a missing or defective interface cable.
