(The
buttons are described from left to right order.)
- Cancel - This button is square with a raised red X on it. Pressing this button during
printing will stop the print job or clear error status.
- Resume - This button is triangular with one point oriented up, like an up arrow, and has a "play" symbol (a triangle pointing right) screen-printed on it. Pressing this button will resume a paused
print job.
- Pause - This button is triangular with one point oriented down, like a down arrow, and has a pause symbol (two vertical bars) screen-printed on it. Pressing this button during the embossing phase of the print job will interrupt
the embossing. Continue the embossing action by pressing the resume button, or
press cancel to abort the print job. Holding
down this button on power up will initiate the printing and embossing of a
system information page. It will load paper, print and emboss information
such as the serial number, the firmware version plus some adjustment values for
the embossing and ink modes. If this function completes without error, the
embossing printer is functioning properly.

Displays |

- Green light (power symbol) -
This light is on when the embossing printer is powered and ready to receive
data. It is blinking if the embossing printer
is busy receiving data or servicing the ink cartridges.
- Red light (warning symbol) -
This light is blinking when an error occurs during printing. The specific errors are: out of paper,
paper jam, embosser head position error, or if the print job data is
corrupted. To clear the error
status warning light, press the cancel button.
- Orange light (ink cartridge symbol) - This light is blinking if the
embossing printer has no ink cartridges installed, or if the housing lid is open.
- Light cycle through all three

During start up the embossing printer automatically checks the three lights by
cycling through them once. If an unidentified error occurs during
operation, the embossing printer indicates this by cycling through the three lights
continuously. If this happens, please
contact ViewPlus support.
- Sequence 2x orange light,
1x red light - If this blinking sequence occurs, the embossing printer is
detecting a non volatile ram error. If this happens, please contact
ViewPlus support.

Error
Alerts
During printing the printer driver is
monitoring the status of the print job .If problems occur during printing,
the embossing printer will inform the user of the error by showing a dialog box
on the screen. This will only happen if the embossing printer is connected locally
to the computer via the USB interface. This will not happen with network
or BlueTooth connections.
- Paper Out - (High-Low) Load
new print media to the input tray and press the cancel button to clear the
error status warning. Now any print
job which was sent but not printed before the error occurred should be resent.
- Paper Jam - (High-Low-High) Remove the jammed paper and press cancel
to clear the error status warning. Now
any print job which was not printed before the error occurred should
be resent.
- Alignment error / Emboss head
stalled - (High-High_Low) Press cancel to
clear the error status warning. Try
printing again. If the problem
persists contact ViewPlus support.
- Print data error - (Low-High) Press
cancel to clear the error status warning.
- Ink Carriage stalled - (High-Low-Very Low) A paper jam might cause the ink carriage to stall.
Please clear the paper from the paper path and free up the ink carriage
inside of the embossing printer. See B in the Paper Handling section also.
- Rear Paper Path Extension - The rear paper path extension
of the embossing printer is not properly installed. Please firmly attach the rear paper
path extension to fix the problem.
- No ink cartridges - (High-High-High)
Open the lid of the embossing printer and insert
at least one ink cartridge (see the installation instructions supplied
with your ink cartridges). Your
Emprint uses HP 56 - Black and HP 57 - Tri-color ink cartridges. The
embossing printer will not emboss if there are no ink cartridges installed
because the HP system
will not load paper. Close lid and
continue operation.
- Housing open - (Low) Close the lid of the embossing printer and continue
operation. If error status warning does not clear that make sure the lid is not
crooked and verify that the black plastic lever to the right of the ink cartridges
is being hit by the pin protruding from the inside of the lid. An error message will be displayed if
you try to print with the lid open.
