Disabling the Cover Open Interlock
Should you need to operate the printer with the top cover raised, you
can reverse the polarity of the cover open interlock switch. This
causes the printer to disable printing and display the LOWER TOP
COVER message when the top cover is lowered and print normally
when the top cover is raised.
Warning: The printer carriage moves at high velocities and there are
sharp edges inside the printer. Personal injury could result from printing
with the top cover raised.

printing a self test pattern.

the LOWER TOP COVER error message will appear on the control
panel display.
3. Hold down the Alt button and press the Form Feed button.
4. Press the Ready button to clear the error. Printing can now occur
with the top cover raised.

will reappear.
