Function errors 
Function errors indicate a serious problem that cannot be recovered by 
the user. The printer can report 12 types of functional errors. 
When a function error occurs, turn the power off, remove paper from 
inside the printer then turn the printer back on.  
If the message remains after the above procedure, contact AMT 
Datasouth for assistance.

paper out, reload paper in the tractors then 
press the ONLINE key to restart printing.  
 When the PAPER JAM error message 
appears despite there being no actual paper 
jam, set menu #26 PAPER JAM DETECT to

  A cut sheet did not eject properly. Remove 
the paper manually. 
 This also naturally occurs at the end of a print 
job or EJECT/LOAD function and the paper 
has not yet been removed from the paper 
rack. 
 
 This error occurs if menu item # 25 PAPER SKEW 
DETECT has been changed to YES and the printer 
detects that a cut sheet paper is loaded at an angle 
beyond the printer’s ability to square it.  
 The ERROR lamp blinks, the buzzer sounds 
three times and the paper is ejected.  
 Reload the paper straight.  
This error also occurs if the paper is loaded straight 
but is too narrow. 
• To load cut sheets narrower than 4 ½ inches, 
verify menu item # 25 PAPER SKEW 
DETECT has been disabled (set to NO).
