Control panel message types
The control panel displays four types of messages that may indicate the status of or problems with the printer.
Status messagesStatus messages reflect the current state of the printer. They inform you of normal printer operation and require no interaction to clear them. They change as the state of the printer changes. Whenever the printer is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning messages, the status message Ready is displayed if the printer is online.
Warning messagesWarning messages inform you of data and print errors. These messages typically alternate with the Ready or STATUS messages and remain displayed until the button is pressed. If CLEARABLE WARNINGS is set to JOB in the printer’s configuration menu, these messsages are cleared by the next print job.
