Cause

Printer error has occurred.

What to Do

If printing is in progress, tap Stop on the printer's touch screen to cancel printing and turn off the printer.

Check the following:

• Make sure the print head holder motion is not impeded by tapes for securing the print head holder during transportation, jammed paper, etc.

  Remove any impediment.

   When clearing an impediment to the print head holder motion, be careful not to touch the white belt (A).

  

  If you soil or scratch this part by touching it with paper or your hand, it could damage the printer.

• Make sure the ink tanks are properly installed.

  Press ink tanks until they click into place.

Turn the printer back on.

If this does not solve the problem, the printer requires servicing.
