Bar code read error: The printer does not detect the presence of the ribbon bar code sensor
1. Power down the printer. Remove the ribbon and wipe the two lenses of the ribbon bar code sensor with a lint-free cloth or cotton swab.
2. Install the ribbon and power on the printer. If the message appears again, replace the ribbon.
3. Power on the printer. If the message appears again, power down the printer and remove the paper path or top cover to gain access to the card cage. Make sure the cable from the ribbon bar code sensor to connector J122 on the controller board is undamaged and has a good connection to J122.
4. Power on the printer. If the message appears again, power down the printer and replace the ribbon bar code sensor.
5. Power on the printer. If the message appears again, power down the printer and replace the controller board. Record the message and return it with the defective board.
