WHAT TO DO IF YOUR PRINTER IS NOT WORKING
If the Printer is not working, there are
several things you can do to restore normal
operat ion.
I.
If no control panel pushbuttons will
light, check to make sure the power
cord is
plu~ged
in and that the
Printer cover is completely closed.
Check power plugs at both the wall
and at the Printer. As a last resort,
plug in another device to see if it
will work in the same outlet. If
another device works in the same
outlet, call your Printer repairman;
otherwise get power restored -to the
outlet.
2 . If the LOCAL pushbut ton will light
bu t the ON LI NE pushbutton wi 11 not,
check the ALARM pushbutton.
If
the
ALARM pushbutton is lit, it prooably
means the plastic paper shield is up
or that you are out of paper . This
problem will have to be corrected
before continuing.
