Status Messages

Status messages describe the condition of a printer or the system. Sometimes they are a response to operator action.

Status messages are only for your information and do not necessarily mean that something is wrong. However, if a printer is not performing the way you think it should, a status message can give you a clue about what to do.

Figure 42 shows a sample Printer Status window. The Printer Status window automatically appears when the system is powered-on. If you have closed the window, you can see it again by SELECTING Printer Status from the Operate pull-down menu.
