Control Panel Operation

1

On Line

On when the printer is online, indicating that the printer can receive and print data. When the printer is offline, this light is off.

2

Data

On when data is received and stored in the printer buffer (printer memory reserved for receiving data), but not yet printed. Flashing indicates that the printer is processing data. When no data remains in the printer buffer, this light turns off.

3

Continue

Flashes or turns on in combination with other lights to indicate printer status and errors. When this light flashes in combination with another light, the error indicated can usually be temporarily cleared by pressing the Continue button. However, if this light comes on solid, the user has to perform a certain procedure before the error can be cleared, like clearing a paper jam or loading paper into an empty paper source. In these cases, the Continue light automatically turns off once the procedure is completed successfully, and printing resumes.

4

Paper

Turns on or flashes, sometimes in combination with the Continue light, to indicate a paper-related problem. On solid usually indicates a paper jam, while flashing indicates problems with the paper source, such as when the paper source is empty.

5

Toner

On when the printer's developer cartridge has run out of toner. Flashes to indicate that toner is running low. If this light is flashing, have a new developer cartridge ready. When the light comes on solid in combination with the Continue light, replace the used cartridge with a new one.

6

Memory

Turns on or flashes in combination with other lights to indicate an error, status, or warning that is usually, but not always, memory-related.

1

On Line

Toggles the printer online and offline.

2

Form Feed

Pressing this button when the printer is offline and when there is data remaining in the printer's memory (Data light on) prints out the data and clears the buffer.

3

Continue

Press this button to resume printing when an error occurs. However, this button is effective only if the Continue light is flashing, and not when it is on solid.

4

ALT

Use this button in combination with the Form Feed or Continue button. Press ALT+Form Feed to print a status sheet. Press ALT+Continue to reset the printer.
