Using The Error Indicators - Epson FX-2190 Reference Manual

Using the error indicators

You can identify many common printer problems using the lights
on the control panel. If your printer stops working and one or
more control panel lights are on or flashing or the printer beeps,
use the following table to diagnose and fix the problem. If you
cannot fix your printer problem using this table, see "Problems
and Solutions" on page 134.

No paper is loaded in the selected paper source.
Load paper in the printer or select a different paper
source; the Paper Out light goes off. Then press the
Pause button; the Pause light goes off and the
printer starts printing.
The paper is not loaded correctly.
Remove your paper and reload it correctly. See
"Loading Continuous Paper" on page 17 or
"Loading Single Sheets" on page 49 for instructions
on loading the type of paper you want to use.
The paper release lever is set to the wrong position.
Set the paper release lever to the position for the
paper source you want to use. If paper from
another paper source is currently in the paper
path, press the Load/Eject button to eject the
paper; then move the paper release lever to the
desired position.
