You can print error logs listing all errors that occurred during printing. The

oldest error belongs to one of the following types of print jobs, it is not delet-
ed. Instead, it will be stored separately in error logs for each job type, up to a
maximum of 30 for each log. You can check any of these print jobs for error
log information.
