Understanding Display Messages
The control panel display can show four kinds of messages.
Status
The status message appears when you turn on the printer and during
normal printing operations. This message shows the current font and
print quality, and whether the printer is ready, paused, printing a self test,
or in demand document mode. Notice that the button that controls each
displayed setting is located just below the displayed setting.
Alternate Status
The alternate status message appears when you press the Alt button to
invoke the alternate function of a button. The alternate function is printed
in blue alongside the button. The message shows the current character
pitch (the number of characters per inch), printer emulation, and color.
Notice that the button that controls each displayed setting is located just
below the displayed setting.
Operator and Error
Many operator and error messages appear to notify you of printer
conditions, actions you must take, and errors that occur. You can find a
complete list of operator and error messages in the
Solving Problems
section of this guide.
Setup Menu
The Setup menu is a list of parameters for operations, print modes, page
setup, tabs, communications, and special modes. The menu provides a
snapshot view of current printer status. You can change settings as
required, then save the settings for use at a later time. You can also
specify the power-on default settings. You'll learn more about the Setup
menu later in this section.
