UNDERSTANDING THE STATUS LED

The color of the Status LED indicates the machine's current status.

STATUS		DESCRIPTION

Off		• The machine is powered off-line.
		• The machine is in power save mode. When
		data is received, or any button is pressed, it
		switches to on-line automatically.

Green	Blinking	• When the green LED slowly blinks, the
		machine is receiving data from the computer.
		• When the green LED rapidly blinks, the
		machine is printing data.
	On	• The machine is powered on and can be used.

Red	Blinking	• A minor error has occurred and the machine is
		waiting for the error to be cleared. Check the
		display message, and solve the problem
		referring to "Understanding display
		messages" on page 68.
		• Small amount of toner is left in the cartridge.
		The estimated cartridge lifea of toner is close.
		Prepare a new cartridge for replacement. You
		may temporarily increase the printing quality
		by redistributing the toner. (See
		"Redistributing toner" on page 60.)

	On	• A problem has occurred such as a paper jam,
		cover opened or no paper in the tray, so that
		the machine cannot continue the job. Check
		the message on the display, and refer to
		"Understanding display messages" on
		page 68 to solve the problem.
		• A toner cartridge has almost reached its
		estimated cartridge lifea. It is recommended to
		replace the toner cartridge. (See "Replacing
		the toner cartridge" on page 61.)

a.Estimated cartridge life means the expected or estimated toner cartridge life, which indicates the average capacity of print-outs and is designed pursuant to ISO/OEC 19752. (See "Specifications" on page 83.) The number of pages may be affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and media size. Some amount of toner may remain in the cartridge even when "Toner Exhausted " appears and the printer stops printing.

Always check the message on the display to solve the problem. The instruction in the Troubleshooting section will guide you to operate the machine properly. See "Understanding display messages" on page 68 for more information.
