Meaning

Self test

The printer is self-testing and warming up after power-up and is not ready to

 

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.
