Lights
Operate | On when the printer is on. Flashes when the printer |
| is turned on or off. |
Data | On when data is being received by the printer or |
| when data remains in printer memory. |
Paper Out | On when the printer runs out of paper. Rapid |
| flashing indicates a paper jam. |
No Ink | On when one or both ink cartridges are not installed. |
Cartridge | The printer will not work unless both cartridges are |
| installed. |
Font | Indicates the font selected through the control panel. |
| Because you normally choose fonts from your |
| software, ignore this light. |
Economy | On when economy printing mode is selected. In |
| economy mode the printer uses less ink by printing |
| fewer dots per character, which may make black text |
| look gray. Use this mode only for printing rough |
| drafts of text from DOS applications. |
Condensed | On when condensed mode is selected. The printer |
| prints selected fonts at 60% of their width so more |
| characters can fit on a page. (Software can override |
| this setting.) |
Pause | On when printing is paused. This light flashes when |
| you clean the print heads or replace ink cartridges, |
| or when an error occurs. Never turn off the printer |
| when the Pause light is flashing. |
