I continue to receive "scanner error 5" however the turn-off and back on command will not clear the error. Prior to this issue, the unit worked perfectly. All other capabilities are unusable since this error can not be cleared. Any help is greatly appreciated!

wait at least 30 seconds, and then turn on the
power and wait for the product to initialize.
If the error persists, verify that all formatter
