Hi @xpresscomputer,
I understand that you are getting a "Cool-down" error. I would be happy to help you.
I wasn't sure what steps you have tried so far, so I am providing all the steps to see if it will help resolve the issue and I can send you that information in a private message. In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
I have provided a document with Resolving Control Panel Messages.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
Update the printer's firmware. Software and Driver Downloads.
If the issue continues, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 for further assistance. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

Hi xpresscomputer,
Thanks for sharing that the firmware update resolved the Cool-Down mode issue.

I see that you didn't receive the PM, I will send you that information in a private message again in case you might need it in the future for something. Not sure why it didn't go through. In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
Have a wonderful day!
