In this section we explain about installing the optional network interface board and extended memory . Network Interface Board Installation P AGE 80 Memory Extension P AGE 82 Installation of Options 7.
The standard interface for the RJ-6000 Series printer has a parallel Centronics compatible interface as standard equipment. The network interface board, RJ- ETH13TX, for connection to EtherNet is also available as an option. The following procedure explains how to install the network interface board.
• Electronic components are susceptible to damage by static electricity . Remove static charge from your clothes and body by touching your hands to the board box before you touch the network interface board. Step 3 Fasten the two interface mounting screws.
Standard internal memory for the RJ-6000 Series printer is 8 MB + 32 MB (slot 1) but this can be extended by fitting an additional 16 MB (SIM16M) or 32 MB (SIM32M) memory chips (sold separately). The following procedure explains how to install extended memory .

This section explains about displays while the printer is working, messages when an error has occurred and how to deal with them. Printer Status Display P AGE 86 Messaged Errors and Countermeasures P .
The normal operating condition of the printer is displayed. Normal (when media is loaded) Data can be received and printed. Normal (when media is not loaded) Media is not loaded or printing on a cut sheet is finished. Data can be received but can not be printed unless media is loaded.
Cleaning in progress The print heads are being cleaned. Please wait. (See Basic Edition page 63) Media initialization in progress Media is being initialized.
A messaged error impedes the operation of the printer . Sometimes an error is displayed and printing continues or printing may cease when an error is dis- played. If printing stops, it will be reprinted when the cause of the error is removed. When a messaged error occurs, the beeper will beep twice unless there is insufficient memory .
Media replacement request Media is loaded but the next process has failed. The lever was raised during printing or cutting and lowered again without the media having been removed. Remove the media. Roll media end The end of the media was detected when roll media was initialized.
Request to insert exclusive or same type ink cartridges Either ink cartridges other than the exclusive type or mixed dye and pig- ment ink cartridges have been installed. Make sure exclusive ink car- tridges of the same type (all dye or all pigment) are loaded.
Data errors occur when there is a fault in communication between the printer and the computer . There are three types of data error: • Errors related to communication conditions • Errors caused by faulty handshaking • Escape sequence command format errors The beeper gives three long beeps when a data error occurs.
Command errors occur during the processing of command data received from the computer . If the printer's command set-up differs from the type of command data sent from the computer If there is a grammatical error in the command data sent from the com- puter The beeper gives three long beeps when a data error occurs.
Position overflow Buffer overflow The polygon buffer or downloadable buffer has overflowed. (See pages 22, 33) • In each case, first check that the command modes of the com- puter and printer are compatible. Refer to your computer manu- al for computer settings.
Errors requiring a restart are fatal to the operation of the printer . The power to the printer must be switched off and the printer must be restarted. They are caused by an obstruction to the printer drive or damage related to a printer board. When an error requiring restart occurs, the printer behaves as follows.
Feed motor overcurrent An error with the media feed motor has occurred. Carriage motor overcurrent An error with the carriage motor has occurred. • When an error occurs in the XY drive systems, check for an obstruction in the XY drive systems. If there is an obstruction, remove it before the power is switched on again.
Errors Requiring Restart that Involve the CPU System Standard DRAM error An access error has occurred in stan- dard DRAM. Optional DRAM error An access error has occurred in extended DRAM (option: sold sepa- rately). Interrupt exception error An interrupt exception error has occurred in the CPU.
System call exception error A system call exception error has occurred in the CPU. Break point exception error A break point exception error has occurred in the CPU. Reserved command exception error A reserved command exception error has occurred in the CPU.
