Status messages display on the LCD display of the OCP to indicate the status or current state of the printer.
Status Message/Printer State | Definition |
|
|
|
|
status: ON LINE – Ready | The printer is idle and ready to accept jobs. |
|
|
status: ON LINE – Processing | The printer is currently downloading or processing a |
| job. |
|
|
status: ON LINE – Pages Deferred | Pages are waiting and nothing is being |
| downloaded. If jobs were sent with the “Defer Print” |
| or “Buffer” option, the printer is waiting for more |
| data to fill the frame store. |
|
|
status: ON LINE – Printing | The printer is printing and may also be processing |
| more jobs. |
|
|
status: OFF LINE – Idle | The printer is currently offline. No jobs exist in the |
| printer. “Idle” is used instead of “Ready” because |
| the printer is actually idle (not doing anything) and |
| will not accept jobs. |
|
|
status: OFF LINE – Processing | The printer is offline but a job is being downloaded. |
| A print cycle will not be initiated. |
|
|
status: OFF LINE – Pages Deferred | The printer is offline but there are jobs in the printer |
| that are waiting to be printed. A print cycle will not |
| be initiated. |
|
|
status: OFF LINE – Printing | The printer will complete the current print cycle and |
| then pause. |
|
|
status: OFF LINE – Cancelling | Cancel was pressed when the printer was printing. |
| The sheet that was printing was immediately |
| terminated. This message is also displayed when |
| you select “Yes” to the prompt to cancel all |
| remaining jobs when you enter the menu. |
|
|
status: Initializing | The printer is powering up (after Standby has been |
| pressed or the printer has been turned on). |
|
|
status: ON LINE – Resetting | The print engine is being reset because of an error |
| or operator intervention. The printer will return to the |
| “ON LINE – Ready” state after the machine reset is |
| complete (even if the printer was offline because of |
| an error or key that was pressed before the reset). |
|
|
status: Printer Error: | A printer error (such as a paper jam) has occurred. |
<Error Message> | The error message is displayed on the second line |
| of the display. For a complete list of error |
| messages, see “Printer Error Messages” on |
