Abstract
A system indicates fault conditions in an automated banking machine journal printer (12, 106). The journal printer is supplied with paper from a paper supply (16, 112). Movement of paper by the printer is sensed by a detector (70, 124). An amount of paper remaining in the paper supply is sensed by a second detector (78, 122). The detectors are connected to an electronic circuit (74, 118) including a processor (76, 120). Fault signals are generated by said electronic circuit responsive to said detectors sensing conditions representative of paper jam, paper low and paper out conditions.
