Troubleshooting

Problems and Solutions

Check to see if you have installed the wrong BJ cartridge for the print job

If the BJ cartridge is not appropriate for the print job, or if you attempt to start a print job with

the optional Scanner Cartridge installed, the printer will beep 4 times and the orange

CHARGE/ERROR light will ﬂash. Install the correct BJ cartridge to resume printing.

Check to see if you have removed the battery pack

If the battery pack is not installed correctly, the orange CHARGE/ERROR light comes on

and the printer beeps 6 times. Make sure the battery pack is installed correctly.

Check the ink level in the BJ tanks

If the low-ink alert has been turned on, the orange CHARGE/ERROR light will ﬂash and the

printer beeps twice. You can continue the print job until the ink runs out by pressing the

RESUME button, but immediate replacement of the BJ tank is recommended. Use the

printer driver or the printer’s operation panel to reset the low-ink alert after replacing the

BJ tank.

Using the Low-Ink Alert

Check to see if you have stopped the BJ cartridge replacement

If you discontinue the BJ cartridge replacement, the printer will beep 3 times and the

orange CHARGE/ERROR light will ﬂash. Press the CARTRIDGE button to continue

BJ cartridge replacement. If you intend to use the printer in this situation, then press the

RESUME button.

Check to see if a long print job has been executing on battery power only

When the battery power runs low, the printer emits alternate long and short beeps and the

CHARGE/ERROR light comes on. Turn off the printer. Connect the AC adapter to the

printer then plug it into a power outlet, or remove the battery and install a charged battery.
