Error Indicators
Certain problems are identified by the control panel lights. When your printer stops operating or the lights are on or flashing unexpectedly, see the following descriptions of panel light patterns and the corrective actions you should take.
The Paper Out light is on.
No paper is loaded in the printer. Load paper in the sheet feeder; then press the Load/Eject button to turn off the Paper Out light. The printer resumes printing.
If paper is loaded in the printer, it may not be loaded properly; remove it and reinsert it gently straight up and down.
