What to do if my Ice Printer shows 'Printhead Over Temperature'?
If your Ice Printer displays 'Printhead Over Temperature', it means the printhead is overheating. Allow the printhead to cool down.
What to do if the Ice Printer ribbon breaks?
If the ribbon breaks in your Ice Printer, there might be several reasons. It could be a broken ribbon, excess slack when loading the cassette, a damaged cassette (check for a damaged base plate), end of the reel, incorrect ribbon placement relative to the peel roller, or the host machine holding the ribbon too firmly. To resolve this, try reinstalling the ribbon, replacing the ribbon reel, checking for cassette damage, or reviewing and correcting the application.
How to fix 'Motor Volts Error' on Ice PegasusHS Printer?
A 'Motor Volts Error' on your Ice Printer suggests that the power supply voltage varies too much, the printer PCB is faulty, or the motor itself is faulty. You can check the power supply output, replace the main printer PCB, or check and replace the motor if necessary.
What does it mean when my Ice PegasusHS Printer shows a 'Thermistor Fault'?
A 'Thermistor Fault' on your Ice Printer could indicate a faulty printhead, a loosened ribbon cable, or a faulty printhead ribbon cable. Try replacing the printhead, pushing the ribbon back into place, or replacing the printhead ribbon cable.
What does 'Ribbon Error' mean on my Ice PegasusHS Printer and how to fix it?
A 'Ribbon Error' on your Ice Printer could be due to excessive ribbon reel eccentricity, ribbon tags fooling the optical calibration system, or another unspecified issue. Try replacing the ribbon, removing the tags and winding the take-up reel neatly, or replacing the take-up reel or the supply reel.
How to resolve a 'Head Crash' error on an Ice Printer?
A 'Head Crash' error on your Ice Printer can occur if the printhead microswitch is defective or out of adjustment, the printer hand is incorrectly set, or the printhead motor is stalling due to a poorly positioned print platen. You can adjust or replace the printhead microswitch, set the printer hand correctly, or check and adjust the print platen.
What causes optical calibration to fail on an Ice Printer?
Optical calibration might fail on your Ice Printer because the ribbon reel diameters are out of the expected range, ribbon reels and/or cores are incorrectly located on the mandrel, or a large ribbon tag is obscuring the calibration sensor. Try using the correct ribbon reel, reinstalling the ribbon reels and/or cores correctly, or removing the tag.
Why does the printhead on my Ice PegasusHS not move in and out?
If the printhead on your Ice Printer isn't moving in and out, the possible causes are a disconnected air supply, defective solenoid wiring or air lines, a defective solenoid, or a jammed printhead. Check and set the air pressure to 3 bar, check and correct the wiring/air lines, check and correct the solenoid. If the printhead is jammed, turn the power off and manually try to move the head, clearing any obstructions.
What to do if the optical calibration sensor is dirty on my Ice PegasusHS Printer?
If you suspect the optical calibration sensor is dirty on your Ice Printer, it might be due to dirt or an obstruction between the emitter and detector, a faulty emitter assembly, a faulty detector assembly, or a faulty printhead cable. You can clean the emitter and detector gently with a soft cloth, replace the emitter assembly, replace the detector assembly, or replace the printhead cable.
How to troubleshoot if my Ice PegasusHS is not powering on?
If your Ice Printer isn't powering up, check these potential causes: the power plug isn't fully seated, power isn't turned on at the source, the power cable isn't properly connected, or the power supply voltage is set incorrectly. You should check and correct these issues, check the 5 A fuse on the CLARiTY unit, or replace the fuse if it's blown.
