Event log

 

Use the event log to diagnose and troubleshoot printer errors and intermittent failures. You can

 

either view the event log on the control panel, or you can print it.

 

Open the event log from the control panel information menu. (Select PRINT EVENT LOG or SHOW

 

EVENT LOG.) The event log retains the printer’s last 30 error messages.

 

See the list of printer messages that begins on page 193 for more information about correcting

 

event log messages on the printer.

 

 

 

 

Note

The event log codes and the error message that appears on the control panel do not always

 

correspond exactly. The numbers in the control panel message might not be the same in the event

 

log; the decimal numbers might be shifted by one digit. For example, 13.1 on the control panel

 

appears as 13.01 in the event log.
