Chapter 3: Solving Problems
The 7193 printer is a simple, generally trouble-free printer, but from time to time minor
problems may occur. For example, the power supply may be interrupted or the printhead
may overheat for some reason.
Lights on the operator panel will signal that something may not be operating properly: one
green light and one red light may either flash or glow continuously as described in the
following table and on the following pages.
