The following Status Error Light Resolution numbers correspond to the Status Light Description table on the previous page. Each error number may have one or more resolution to correct that error listed.

1.The printer is not receiving power.

Have you turned on the printer power?

Check power connections from the wall outlet to the power supply, and from the power supply to the printer. See Attaching Power on page 14.

2.The printer is on and in an idle state.

If this error occurs after you have been printing, turn the printer power off and on, and then resume printing.

The printhead needs to cool down.

If this error continues, turn the printer power off for five minutes or more, and then turn on. If the amber light persists, then the printer requires service.

4.The printer is receiving data.

As soon as all of the data has been received, the status LED will turn green and the printer will automatically resume operation.
