Control panel messages
Status messages
Status messages reflect the current state of the printer. They inform
you of normal printer operation and require no interaction to clear
them. They change as the state of the printer changes. Whenever the
printer is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning messages, the
status message
READY
is displayed if the printer is online.
Warning messages
Warning messages inform you of data and print errors. These
messages typically alternate with the
READY
or
STATUS
messages and
remain displayed until the
✔
button is pressed. If
CLEARABLE
WARNING
is set to
JOB
in the printer’s configuration menu, these messages are
cleared by the next print job.
Error messages
Error messages communicate that some action must be performed,
such as adding paper or clearing a paper jam.
Some error messages are auto-continuable; if
AUTO CONTINUE=ON
the
printer will continue normal operation after displaying an auto-
continuable error message for 10 seconds.
Note
Any button pressed during the 10-second display of an auto-
continuable error message will override the auto-continue feature and
the function of the button pressed will take precedence. For example,
pressing the
C
ANCEL
J
OB
button will cancel the job.
Critical error messages
Critical error messages inform you of a device failure. Some of these
messages can be cleared by turning the printer off and then on.
These messages are not affected by the
AUTO CONTINUE
setting. If a
critical error persists, service is required.
The following table lists and describes control panel messages, in
alphabetical order.
