If your Seiko TP-5 displays error E-05, it means the time card or document has not been inserted correctly.

To correct the problem:

  1. Try inserting the time card or document again.
  2. Ensure you are not excessively pushing/pulling the time card or document as it is being inserted into the Seiko TP-5.
  3. Verify that the time card or document is not folded or bent.
  4. Verify that there are no paper clips or staples on the time card or document.
  5. Verify there is no debris or foreign material in the time card slot.
  6. Verify that the ribbon cartridge is seated correctly.  Remove and reinsert the ribbon cartridge, if necessary.

If the problem persists, the TP-5 must be repaired or replaced.
