  Rachel MartinezAug 27, 2025
  A 'Paper Length Error' on your TallyGenicom Printer can occur for these reasons: * Epson/IBM emulation: Print goes beyond the bottom edge of the paper. * Olivetti emulation: Print exceeds the selected page length. To resolve this: * Reset Error Command or General Reset Command (PR2) when no paper is in the printer to cancel the error and return to online status. * Press the STOP Key when no paper is in the printer to go to an offline (STOP) state and cancel the error. * Consider switching the "Continuous print" parameter to "on" in the menu.

  Brad RobertsonSep 15, 2025
  A Cover Open Error (Epson/IBM emulation) on your TallyGenicom Printer means the cover open sensor has detected that the cover is open. * If the cover is closed, the printer is shifted to online state. * If the cover is opened during other errors (e.g. Paper Jam Error, Paper Length Error) occur, the LCD message will not be changed. However, if the cover is closed in that error state, those errors will be canceled.
