Understanding the Operator Panel

Understanding the Operator Panel

The operator panel has a LCD message display, three indicators, and eight keys.

Messages that appear on the display and functions of indicators and keys are explained in the sections that follows.

Message Display

The message display gives information in the form of short messages. The eight messages listed below are displayed during normal warm-up and printing.

Other messages that may appear when the printer needs the operator’s attention are explained in Chapter 4.

Message	Meaning
Self test	The printer is self-testing after power-up.

Please wait	The printer is warming up and is not ready. When
	the printer is switched on for the first time after the
	toner container is installed, (Adding toner)
	also appears.

Ready	The printer is ready to print.

Processing	The printer is receiving data, generating graphics,
	reading a CompactFlash card/Microdrive, or
	printing.

Sleeping	The printer is in sleep mode. The printer wakes
	from sleep mode whenever the GO key on the
	operator panel is pressed, the cover is opened or
	closed, or data is received. The printer then warms
	up and goes online. The time that the printer takes
	to enter sleep mode depends on the sleep timer
	setting.

Cancelling data	Jobs inside the printer are being canceled. To cancel
	a job, see the table on page 1-5.

Waiting	The printer is waiting for the end-of-job command
	before printing the last page. Pressing the GO key
	allows you to obtain the last page immediately.

	period.
