Control Panel Features

The Display The Control Panel's display performs two functions.

•It informs you of printer status conditions, such as when toner is low, when a paper tray is empty, when a job is in process, and so on. For example, when you turn on the printer, you see the following message on the display:

Ready

This message appears whenever the printer is online and ready to accept print jobs. The display will also show:

Processing...

when processing data, and:

Waiting

when waiting for more data.

•It presents a hierarchy of menu options and settings to configure and control the printer.

For example, when you press Menu Up or Menu Down, you will see the following two-line message on the display:

Menus

Item Menu

(such as System Menu or Job Menu)

See the section “Menu Options” (page 3-4) for information on the Menu system hierarchy.
