4.1.1 Meaning of Printer Indicator Behavior

The behavior of the printer's two control panel indicators indicates
its operational status and any errors that may occur during printing.

Illustration of possible printer indicator statuses:

: Indicator off.

: Indicator steadily lit.

: Indicator blinking slowly.

: Indicator blinking rapidly.

Table of printer indicator lamp statuses:

Printer powered down.

-

Printer initialization

-

Note:

An audible signal is sounded when there is a fault on the printer.
Two cases are possible:

an intermittent signal which stops after 5 seconds indicates a
minor problem (e.g. paper out),

a continuous intermittent signal warns the user of a technical
problem (e.g. paper jam).
