When there is a carriage belt problem, the LCD panel will typically display a message such as: “switch power off check printhead path” or “System Error 86:01.” Another common indication of a carriage belt problem is greyish, black debris along the belt path. It is a high priority to replace a worn or broken belt as soon as possible. Postponing repair of the carriage belt can lead to a damaged carriage assembly and/or electronic components, which are exceedingly expensive to repair. 2. Poor Image Quality Print quality problems that you may encounter include: Stepped lines Incomplete lines An image that has missing/faded lines or characters with omitted parts. Here is an example of text with omitted parts: Color alignment problems Double printed lines with the wrong colors. Misaligned or blurry vertical lines. Color blocks that are overlapped with different colors. Horizontal banding An image with light or dark lines on it. Here is an example of how horizontal banding might appear: Color accuracy Many color accuracy problems are related to paper choice or color accuracy configuration. 3. Plotter Does Not Print A plotter that does not print could be caused by such things as a networking issue, a faulty electronic module, or a plotter driver issue. 4. Paper Jams When a paper jam occurs, a paper jam message will normally appear on the LCD front panel, with one of two possible error codes: 81:01 indicating the paper cannot progress into the printer 86:01 indicating that the printhead carriage is unable to move from side to side 5. Out of Memory When a plotter does not have enough memory, an error message will be displayed on the plotter. A few options to resolve this problem include: Replace the current plotter driver with the most current plotter driver from the manufacturer site. Add additional memory to the plotter.
