Understanding product messages

Messages appear on the status bar of the control panel graphical display to relay the normal status of the product (such as READY) or an error condition (such as STAPLER LOW ON STAPLES) that needs attention. This product features a Help system that provides instructions for resolving most product errors. After detecting an error, a dialog box appears on the graphical display. The dialog box prompts you with instructions on how to solve the problem.
