Epson 5000 - Manual (Page 117)

Most problems you encounter while operating your printer
have simple solutions. Read through the appropriate section to
find your problems; then follow the recommended steps. If
you cannot solve the problem, contact your dealer or a
qualified service person for assistance.
Power Supply
The printer does not work and the OPERATE light does not come
on.
Check that the power cord is plugged into the electrical outlet
properly.
If the electrical outlet is controlled by an outside switch or
automatic timer, use a different outlet.
Plug another electrical device into the outlet to determine
whether the outlet is operating properly.
The OPERATE light comes on briefly and then goes off. The light
stays off even when the power is switched on again.
Check that the printer’s voltage rating matches the voltage of
your electrical outlet. If the voltages do not match, unplug the
printer and contact your dealer immediately. Do not reconnect
the power cord to an electrical outlet.
Printing
The printer does not print and the PAUSE light is on.
Press the PAUSE button.
