# The Printer Pauses during Printing, and then Printing Repeatedly Starts and Stops

Perform the following procedure.

#### <Cause> If the printer is used continuously for an extended period of time, the internal temperature of the printer increases, activating a safety mechanism and pausing printing temporarily.

Solution | Please wait a moment. When the inside of the printer cools down, printing resumes. If the internal temperature of the printer has not decreased sufficiently, the safety mechanism is reactivated and printing is paused temporarily.
| When the inside temperature cools down sufficiently, the printer resumes the normal printing speed. The time until the safety mechanism activates or until the printer resumes the normal printing speed varies depending on the printer usage conditions.
