Control panel message types Control panel messages are divided into three types, depending on their severity. ● Status messages ● Warning messages ● Error messages Within the error message category, some messages are ranked as Critical error messages. This section explains the differences between the control panel message types. Status messages Status messages reflect the current state of the printer. They inform you of normal printer operation and require no interaction to clear them. They change as the state of the printer changes. Whenever the printer is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning messages, the status message Ready is displayed if the printer is online. Warning messages Warning messages inform you of data and print errors. These messages typically alternate with the Ready or Status messages and remain displayed until the button is pressed. If CLEARABLE WARNINGS is set to JOB in the printer's configuration menu, these messages are cleared by the next print job. Error messages Error messages communicate that some action must be performed, such as adding paper or clearing a paper jam. Some error messages are auto-continuable; if AUTO CONTINUE=ON the printer will continue normal operation after displaying an auto-continuable error message for 10 seconds. NOTE Any button pressed during the 10-second display of an auto-continuable error message will override the auto-continue feature and the function of the button pressed will take precedence. For example, pressing the Menu button will display the main menu. Critical error messages Critical error messages inform you of a device failure. Some of these messages can be cleared by turning the printer off and then on. These messages are not affected by the AUTO CONTINUE setting. If a critical error persists, service is required. The following table lists and describes control panel messages, in alphabetical order. ENWW Control panel message types 183
