Message | Meaning |
Self test | The printer is |
| print. |
Please wait | The printer is warming up and is not ready to print. |
Ready | The printer is ready to print |
Processing | The printer is processing print data or in the middle of printing. |
Waiting | The last page remains unprinted. The printer waits awhile and eventually |
| generates a form feed allowing the last page to be printed. (The length of |
| time depends on the form feed timeout setting.) |
| The printing will begin immediately when the Form Feed key is pressed. |
| If a memory card is being used this can indicate the printer is waiting for data |
| to be written. |
Sleeping | The printer is in Sleep mode. The printer wakes from Sleep mode whenever |
| a key on the control panel is pressed, the cover is opened or closed, or data |
| is received. The printer then warms up and goes online. (The time that it |
| takes the printer to enter Sleep mode depends on the Sleep Timer setting.) |
Cancelling data | Data inside the printer is being canceled. |
FormFeed TimeOut | An automatic form feed has been generated. |
Paper loading | After the paper feed cassette has been loaded into the paper feeder, the |
| paper feed position within the cassette is being readied. |
