Chapter 3 — Operation
Indicator Lamp
When the power to the printer is switched on, the indicator lamp will glow green if the printer is loaded with media
If the printer is out of media and/or ribbon, the indicator lamp will glow red.
Any error condition, such as label stop sensor problems, media jams, or software errors, will be indicated by the lamp changing to orange, except for media jams in the optional cutter, which are indicated by long red flashes.
If the indicator lamp fails to work as described above, please refer to Chapter 5 “Troubleshooting”.
