Recognizing the control panel light sequences

The control panel displays certain light sequences to let you know when the toner level is low or when it’s time to replace the photoconductor kit.

*If the control panel lights display this sequence, the printer will not print any more jobs until the photoconductor kit is replaced.

Note: The control panel may also display other light sequences in conjunction with the “Toner low” and “Replace photoconductor” lights.
