Understanding printer messages

Printer messages appear on the printer control panel display to relay the normal status of the printer (such as Processing...) or an error condition (such as CLOSE TOP COVER) that needs attention. Interpreting control-panel messages lists the most common messages that require attention or that might raise questions. Messages are listed in alphabetical order first, with numeric messages at the end of the list.

Using the printer online Help system

This printer features an online Help system on the control panel that provides instructions for resolving most printer errors. Certain control panel messages alternate with instructions about gaining access to the online Help system.

Whenever a message alternates with For help press, press (HELP button) to view the help and use (UP button) and (DOWN button) to scroll through the message.

To exit the online Help system, press MENU.

Resolving persistent messages

Some messages (for example, requests to load a tray or a message that a previous print job is still in the printer memory) allow you to press (SELECT button) to print, or to press STOP to clear the job and eliminate the message.

If a message persists after performing all of the recommended actions, contact an HP- authorized service or support provider. (See HP customer care or go to http://www.hp.com/ support/lj4250 or http://www.hp.com/support/lj4350.)
