Printing and inspection will temporarily stop because consecutive defective sheets have been found. (Sheets: XX)
* Check the device and make sure that printing has completely stopped before closing this message.
* Printing and inspection will resume when this message is closed.

Perform handling in the following order.
1.
Stop the print job
2.
Check whether the inspection job matches with print job images and settings

If they do not match, cancel the inspection. Copy the print job where the problem occurred and configure the correct settings, and then perform the inspection again.
3.
Check the text inspection/barcode inspection settings.
If there are problems in the text inspection results
Register a font that has the same type and size as the font used in the inspection area.
Alternatively, set the character size in the inspection area to 8 pt to 24 pt, and keep the spacing between characters and the top, bottom, left, and right margin sizes within the specification range.
Check that the font image you want to register does not contain any defects.
If it contains defects, either perform the font registration again or adjust the trimming frame so that it does not contain the defects.
Configure the inspection area to contain only characters.
If there are problems in the barcode inspection results
Configure the inspection area to contain the entire barcode.
Correctly specify the barcode used in the inspection area.
Match the margins, size, color, background color, etc. to the barcode specifications.
If the problem cannot be fixed by 2 and 3 above, check the output paper.
