Print Error (by 15 users)

posted by iamaconsumer on Mar 17, 2006


When I print, it only prints about an inch, then shoots out the paper. The ink keeps going, like the printer is still printing. Sucks!

HP 1240 SOMETIMES ONLY PRINTS AN INCH, THEN WILL WORK OK FOR SUBSEQUENT PRINTS.

Comment by Guest, posted on May 01, 2008

Is not feeding the paper properly, only takes in about two inches, but it sounds like it is still printing inside the machine. Now I am getting a paper jam error but I cannot find a paper jam anywhere.

It print about 2 inches, stop printing and cut the paper. Green light continues blinking, like receiving signal. If continues printing, white bars (1/4") appear expanding the picture.

make sure the thickness lever is set to 0.

To be on the safe side make sure you have the latest drivers, and check to make sure that you don't need to change the ink.
sometimes things like this happen when the printer registers a wrong ink level.

Hope this helps

This problem is related with the paper sensor, located in the left tractor (frontal or rear, depends on what are you using). If you are able to disassembly the printer and the tractor, you can clean inside, cause this sensor, inside is a optical sensor, and the paper dust uses to block the led. If you are not so able, try to eschange the tractor. I recommend you to be so carefull to handle this printer, while you are disassembling it. May cause some uncalibrating of some systems.

i guess silly's solution for the above problem is not applicable on fx1170, coz epson stylus series are inkjets that uses ink while fx1170 uses only a ribbon tape which has no ink level indicator at all.

Sound like you have the printer driver set to Direct Thermal. Change the driver setting to Thermal Transfer and the ink will no longer come out with the label :)
