Operator Panel
The operator panel contains 3 status indicators, a 2-line by 24-
characters display panel, 14 printer function keys, and an audible
alarm as indicated in the figure below. For indicators and function keys
there is a short description. For details see User’Guide.
Indicators
READY
If the READY indicator is lighted, the printer is ready to print. If READY
is not lighted, the printer is not ready to print.
The printer can receive data when this indicator is not lighted, but no
data can be printed.
PROCESSING
If lighted, the printer is printing or processing data. If blinking, the
printer buffer contains data that cannot be printed immediately. If not
lighted, there is no data to process and no data in the print buffer.

add forms or to clear a forms jam). The type of intervention needed
appears on the display panel. If not lighted, the printer does not require
immediate attention.
