Occurrence condition
  • The error prevention data when the unit reads each data is incorrect.
  • Noise occurred when reading memory information or communication failed.
  • The contents written to memory are incorrect.
Assumed cause
  • Data failure due to noise
  • Head FFC failure / connection failure
  • Head Failure
Defect-related parts
  • Head FFC
  • Head Unit
  • Main Board
Troubleshooting
Step Confirmation and action YES NO
1

Checking the connection of FFC connecting to the Head Unit and Main Board

  • Check if there is no problem inserting FFC
  • Check the route visually for FFC disconnection and check for scratches
  • Check is there ink adhesion at contacts.
