| printing a self test or demonstration page. |

| installed. The printer will not work if the color ink |

| If color ink runs out while you’re printing, the |
| printer stops. You can continue to print with the |
| black ink cartridge by switching to monochrome |
| printing. To do this, turn off the printer, turn it on |
| again, and resend your print job. |
Paper Out | On when the printer runs out of paper. Flashes |
| rapidly if there is a paper jam. |
Economy | On when economy printing mode is selected. In |
| economy mode the printer uses less ink by printing |
| fewer dots per character. It also makes black printing |
| appear gray. Use this mode for rough drafts of text |
| only that are printed from DOS applications. |
Condensed | On when condensed mode is selected. The printer |
| prints selected fonts at 60% of their width so more |
| characters fit on a page. (Software can override this |
| setting.) |
