Press [Shift] + [Continue] to print the transferred data (data loss may result), then: make more memory available in the printer by removing some fonts, macros, or any other data from memory; or, simplify the page sent to the printer; or, install additional memory. (Note, if AUTO CONT=ON the printer will automatically continue printing when this error occurs). The data (dense text, rules, raster or vector graphics) sent to the printer was too complex. Press [Shift] + [Continue] to resume printing. (Note, if AUTO CONT=ON the printer will automatically continue printing when this error occurs). Some data loss may occur. Try to simplify the print job. If you must print the job "as is," set PAGEPROTCT=ON in the Job Menu, print the job, then return PAGEPROTCT=AUTO. Do not leave PAGEPROTCT set to ON as it will degrade performance. For Bi-Tronics parallel (PAR) configuration, the computer and printer are not communicating because of improper signal protocols. This is an I/O buffer overrun error. Parallel Configuration: may mean a loose cable connection or a bad or poor quality cable. MIO Configuration: This is an I/O buffer overrun error. Press [Shift] + [Continue] to clear the error message (data will be lost). If the error continues: Parallel Configuration: check for loose cable; use a high-quality cable (HP 24542D or equivalent). (Note: some non-HP parallel cables may be missing pin connections.) If the printer is using an I/O other than the Bi-Tronics parallel I/O, see the manual for that device. Indicates an abnormal connection break occurred while transferring data from the computer. Press [Shift] + [Continue] to clear the error message. If the printer is using an I/O other than the Bi-Tronics parallel I/O, see the manual for that device. A temporary printing error occurred. Remove the page from the output bin and press [Shift] + [Continue]. The page containing the error will automatically be reprinted. (Note, if AUTO CONT=ON the printer will automatically continue printing when this error occurs.) The wrong size paper was fed from the MP Tray or the printer picked two sheets of paper at once. Ensure that the paper is within the specifications. If the page jammed, remove the jam. Press [Shift] + [Continue] and the page containing the error will automatically be reprinted. NOTE: If AUTO CONT=ON the printer will automatically continue printing when this error occurs. Refer to the error 13 PAPER JAM earlier in this table for more information. Troubleshooting 7-11

Description
Recommended Action
20 MEM OVERFLOW
The printer received more data from the
computer than can fit in its available user
memory.
Press
[Shift]
+
[Continue]
to print the transferred
data (data loss may result), then: make more
memory available in the printer by removing some
fonts, macros, or any other data from memory; or,
simplify the page sent to the printer; or, install
additional memory. (Note, if AUTO CONT=ON the
printer will automatically continue printing when
this error occurs).
21 PRINT OVERRUN
The data (dense text, rules, raster or vector
graphics) sent to the printer was too complex.
Press
[Shift]
+
[Continue]
to resume printing. (Note,
if AUTO CONT=ON the printer will automatically
continue printing when this error occurs). Some
data loss may occur.
Try to simplify the print job.
If
you must print the job “as is,” set
PAGEPROTCT=ON in the Job Menu, print the job,
then return PAGEPROTCT=AUTO.
Do not leave
PAGEPROTCT set to ON as it will
degrade
performance.
22 PAR IO ERROR,
22 MIO ERROR
For Bi-Tronics parallel (PAR) configuration,
the computer and printer are not
communicating because of improper signal
protocols.
This is an I/O buffer overrun error.
Parallel Configuration: may mean a loose
cable connection or a bad or poor quality
cable.
MIO Configuration: This is an I/O buffer
overrun error.
Press
[Shift]
+
[Continue]
to clear the error
message (data will be lost).
If the error continues:
Parallel Configuration: check for loose cable; use a
high-quality cable (HP 24542D or equivalent).
(Note: some non-HP parallel cables may be
missing pin connections.)
If the printer is using an I/O other than the
Bi-Tronics parallel I/O, see the manual for that
device.
40 MIO ERROR
Indicates an abnormal connection break
occurred while transferring data from the
computer.
Press
[Shift]
+
[Continue]
to clear the error
message.
If the printer is using an I/O other than
the Bi-Tronics parallel I/O, see the manual for that
device.
41.[X] ERROR
X=1, 2, 4, or 5
A temporary printing error occurred.
Remove the page from the output bin and press
[Shift]
+
[Continue]
.
The page containing the error
will automatically be reprinted. (Note, if AUTO
CONT=ON the printer will automatically continue
printing when this error occurs.)
41.3 PAPER ERROR
The wrong size paper was fed from the MP
Tray or the printer picked two sheets of paper
at once.
Ensure that the paper is within the specifications
.
If the page jammed, remove the jam.
Press
[Shift]
+
[Continue]
and the page
containing the error will automatically be reprinted.
NOTE: If AUTO CONT=ON the printer will
automatically continue printing when this error
occurs.
Refer to the error 13 PAPER JAM earlier in
this table for more information.
