    Configured models
    The following illustrations show a standard network and fully configured printer. If you attach print media handling options to 
    the printer, it may look more like the fully configured model. Items denoted with an asterisk (*) are options.
    CAUTION:Floor-mounted configurations require additional furniture for stability. You must use either a printer 
    stand or printer base if you are using a 2000-sheet drawer, a duplex unit and an input option, or more 
    than one input option. If you purchased a multifunction printer (MFP) that scans, copies, and faxes, 
    you may need additional furniture. See www.lexmark.com/multifunctionprinters for more 
    information.

    Understanding the printer operator panel
    The operator panel on the printer is a 4-line back-lit gray scale display that can show both graphics and text. The Back, 
    Menu, and Stop buttons are located to the left of the display, the navigation buttons are located below the display, and the 
    numeric pad is located to the right of the display.
    The use of the buttons and the layout of the display panel are described in the following table.
    ButtonFunction
    Back Returns to the last screen you viewed.
    Note:Changes made on a screen will not be applied if you press the Back button.
    Menu Opens the menu index.
    Note:The printer must be in the Ready state to access the menu index. A message 
    indicating the menus are unavailable will appear if the printer is not ready.
    Stop Stops the mechanical operation of the printer. After pressing Stop, the message Stopping 
    appears. When the printer has stopped, the status line in the operator panel will show 
    Stopped, and a list of options appears.
    Indicator lightA two-tone LED is used on the operator panel, one color is green and the other is red. The 
    lights indicate whether the printer power is on, the printer is busy, idle, processing a job, or 
    requires operator intervention.
    Status Indicates
    Off Power is off.
    Solid green Printer is on, but idle.
    Blinking green Printer is warming up, processing data, or printing a job.

    Learning about the printer
    The Up or Down buttons are used to move up and down lists.
    When navigating through a list using the Up or Down button, the cursor 
    moves one line at a time. Pressing the Down button at the bottom of the 
    screen changes the screen to the next whole page.
    The Left or Right buttons are used to move within a screen such as moving 
    from one menu index item to another. They are also used to scroll through 
    text that will not fit on the screen.
    The Select button is used to initiate action on a selection. Press Select when 
    the cursor appears next to the selection you want such as following a link, 
    submitting a configuration item, or when you want to start or cancel a job.
    USB Direct interfaceThe host USB Direct interface on the operator panel is used to plug in a USB flash memory 
    device and print PDF files.
    Note:A USB port is located on the back of the printer to connect a PC or other peripheral.
    The numeric pad consists of numbers, a pound # sign, and a backspace button. The 5 
    button has a raised bump for non-visual orientation.
    The numbers are used to enter numeric values for items like quantities or PINs. The 
    backspace is used to delete the number to the left of the cursor. Pressing the backspace 
    multiple times will delete additional entries.
    Note:The pound # sign is not used.
    The display panel shows messages and graphics describing the current state of the printer 
    and indicating possible printer problems you must resolve.
    The top line of the display is the header line. If applicable, it will contain the graphic 
    indicating the Back button can be used. It will also display the current status and the 
    Supplies (Warnings) status. If multiple warnings are present, each warning will be 
    separated by a comma.
    The other three lines of the display are the body of the screen. This is where you view 
    printer status, supplies messages, show-me screens, and make selections.
