❏ A recoverable error recovers by resetting the printer or sending a command from the driver
after the cause of the error is eliminated.
❏ For unrecoverable errors, the printer or the power supply may be malfunctioning and must
be repaired.
Automatically recoverable errors
Although normal printer operation is no longer possible when automatically recoverable errors
occur, they do not represent printer failure. They can be recovered easily, as described below.
Note:
If the temperature cannot be detected correctly, an internal circuit connection error occurs.
Recoverable errors
Although normal printer operation is not possible after a recoverable error occurs, this is not a
printer malfunction. These errors can be recovered easily by turning the power on again or
sending an error recovery command from the driver after eliminating the cause of the error.
Note:
The error recovery command is valid only if a recoverable error (excluding automatically recoverable
errors) occurs. If a recoverable error occurs, the printer recovers from the error upon receipt of an error
recovery command from the driver after the cause of the error is eliminated. Turning the printer’s power
off and on is not required.
