A ‘Verify After Write” check to the SRAM has failed. The SRAM could be bad.
This is a motor control error. Four possible areas of failure are:
a. CR home condition not detected at power up
b. Platen gap motor HP not detected correctly
c. Friction/Tractor feed switching error
d. Physical obstruction such as a jammed ribbon
Skewed paper detect error. Since the initial reading upon loading a single
sheet paper, the paper has skewed. This is a printhead wire protection
feature.
Illegal paper positioning.
(1)
If the paper is loaded using the knob instead of the LOAD/EJECT switch,
this error condition will occur. This is a printhead wire protection feature.
(2)
PE sensor may have failed or is not connected.
CPU error. An undefined op-code was detected.
NOTES:
Error codes 11 and 12 are usually caused by new operators who are
un-familiar with the machine. Both of these errors are corrected by
turning the printer off, taking out the paper and turning the printer back
on. Both features were added to ensure proper paper handling and
prevent paper jams, which can result in printhead failures.
Incorrect jumper settings on the ROMA board may cause errors 10 or
20. The correct settings are documented in the Service Manual (page
A-54, figure A-52) and on TIB LQ2550-005.
Errors 0,2, 3, 10, and 20 may require a repair, adjustment or
replacement.
