REFLECTIVE MODE 
FAULTY SENSOR!
!!
!
Consistently high sensor readings 
were detected. 
Press any key to continue. 
Ensure that media was removed from 
the media sensor during the 
appropriate calibration steps; also 
ensure that no labels are stuck in the 
media sensor. Retry the calibration. If 
the problem persists, call for service. 
!
RIBBON FAULT!
!!
!
The ribbon sensor values have 
changed, or the printer detects no, 
or only sporadic, ribbon supply 
hub movement.  
Try the following: 
1) Ensure that ribbon is correctly 
installed and that the Head Lift 
Lever is latched. 
2) Check the ribbon supply and 
ribbon take up hubs for 
obstructions that may be inhibiting 
movement. 
3) Ensure that the ribbon core fits 
snugly on the ribbon supply hub. 
4) Ensure that the ribbon is not 
slipping (usually caused by an 
incorrect media and ribbon 
combination). 
5) Press and hold the FEED Key 
until at least three labels have 
been output to clear the fault.

continue printing. Call for service. 
!
TEMPERATURE FAULT!

The printer has shutdown to allow 
the printhead temperature to cool. 
Turn ‘Off’ the printer and wait until 
the printhead cools to prevent
