If the 

READY light is off and the ON LINE light is flickering, the

LQ has stopped to allow the print head to cool. Printing
resumes soon; you do not have to do anything to re-start it.

l

If the printer stops, the beeper sounds, and the 

ON LINE light

does not flicker, turn the printer off and then turn it back on

and try to print again. If the printer beeps again and does not

print, take it to a qualified service person.

The position of the paper 

release lever may be wrong. 

Push it

back to the single sheet position.

You may have tried to load the paper with the 

button while the printer was 

ON LINE. Be sure that the printer is

off line when you use the 

LOAD/EJECT button.

The paper may be too large or too small. See the paper
specifications in Chapter 8.

The paper guide may not be installed properly. See the section

on installing the paper guide in Chapter 2.
