Why is there light or no trace on my Philips Avalon FM20?
The issue of light or no trace on your Philips Monitor could stem from a few reasons. It might be due to using the wrong type of paper. It could also be caused by a dirty printhead. In the case of FM20/30 models only, the paper might be misaligned because the drawer isn't fully closed.
What to do if my Philips Monitor displays 'End of paper noted' prematurely?
If your Philips Monitor indicates 'End of paper noted' before the paper pack is actually finished, it may be due to a bad paper feed or using the wrong type of paper. Check the paper feed and ensure you are using the recommended paper.
