Status messages

Status messages reflect the current state of the device. They inform you of normal operation and require no action to clear them. They change as the state of the device changes. Whenever the device is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning messages, the status message READY appears if the device is turned on.

Error messages

Error messages communicate that some action must be performed, such as adding media or clearing a media jam. These messages are usually accompanied by a blinking red Attention light. Take the appropriate action to continue printing.
