      If the Error LED on your PAX Printer is blinking and the beeper is alarming, it could be due to a few reasons. The thermal print head may be overheated; in this case, turn the printer off and resume when it cools. Alternatively, it could be due to overvoltage or low-voltage. Ensure you are printing with the specified voltage.

      If the Paper LED and Error LED are always on, and the beeper alarms on your PAX Printer, it indicates that the paper has run out. Reload the roll paper to resolve this issue.

      If the Error LED is always on and the beeper alarms on your PAX Printer, check if the printer cover is open. Closing the printer cover should resolve the issue.

      If the Paper LED is always on on your PAX Printer, it means the roll paper is near its end. The printer can still work normally.
