All indicators light brieﬂy and immediately go out, except POWER and READY, which remain on for about 10 seconds. Then the READY indicator blinks while the POWER indicator remains on and the self-tests are run. When both POWER and READY are on steady (not blinking), the self-tests are complete.

When a standard transfer roll is more than 75 percent used up, the front-panel RIBBON indicator lights, reminding you that it is time to order a new transfer roll.

When you install the sample transfer roll supplied with the printer, the RIBBON indicator may light as soon as you install it, or after you make a few prints. This is because the sample transfer roll contains a limited number of prints.

For complete information on the front-panel indicator lights, refer to “Front panel (Phaser 220i and Phaser 220e)” on page 7-6.
