If message does not clear, go to the next step. 2. Check forms for dark backs or holes/perforations large enough to cause false END OF FORMS messages.

Remove the paper guide assembly or pedestal top cover. Remove the barrier shield (cabinet model) or the barrier shield and paper guide (pedestal model).
