A message in English- as listed below-will be displayed provided no other message is specified using an ERROR instruction. The ERROR instruction can be used to activate error-handling for any error and allows you to edit an error message in any language, which will both be displayed in the printer's display window, and transmitted back to the printer (according to selected verbosity and type of error message, see Chapter 5.15 and 5.16).
