2.1.2 Control panel

The following shows the functions of the control panel.

POWER switch

This switches the power on and off. The POWER LED indicates whether the power is on or off.

POWER LED: Indicates whether the power is on or off.

On:

The power is on. (power on)

Off:

Flashing:

The power is performing an operation.

 

(cleaning, power-on process, power-off process, voiding remaining print data and so

 

on.)

CAUTION:

When turning the printer off, always use the POWER switch. If the power is turned off by unplugging the power cable instead of using the POWER switch and the printer is left for 2 weeks or more, the ink head nozzles become blocked and no longer work because the printer was unable to perform the power-off process.

Note:

When the POWER LED is flashing, do not open the printer cover or turn off the printer.

If the POWER LED and another LED are flashing at the same time, it indicates that an error has occurred. For details, see "Troubleshooting" on page 3-8.
