LED INDICATORS
On the front panel of your printer are four LED indicators. The 
upper-most LED is the Power ON/OFF indicator, and is 
illuminated constantly whenever power is applied and switched 
on. The other three lights have five conditions of illumination 
depending on the printer’s current status:
1. OFF—Not illuminated.
2. ON—Constantly illuminated.
3. SLOW BLINK—Flashing slowly, approximately once every 
four seconds.
4. MEDIUM BLINK—Flashing approximately once per 
second.
5. FAST BLINK—Flashing very fast, approximately four 
times per second (flickering).
STATUS MONITOR INDICATION
In most cases the Windows status monitor, installed along with 
the printer driver software if you used the installer program on 
the supplied CD, will tell you what the current printer status is. 
You should first consult this. If the message does not help, then 
the status LEDs on the front of your printer will provide a 
secondary indication.
ERROR INDICATIONS
The error LED is the bottom-most LED on the front of your 
printer.
If your printer detects an error condition the error LED will 
illuminate, either continuously or flashing. In this situation the 
printer may refuse to print or stop printing in the middle of a job, 
depending on the cause of the problem.
PAPER JAM
If the paper jams during printing the printer will stop immediately 
and the error LED will flash at approximately 1-second intervals. 
In this case the cause will be fairly obvious, since the jammed 
sheet will be partially visible out of either the front or the top of 
the printer. (See “Clearing paper jams” on page 14.)

PRINT CARTRIDGE MIS-INSTALLED
If the print cartridge (combination of image drum and toner 
cartridge) is not located properly this will also cause the error 
light to illuminate, and it will usually be impossible to latch the 
top cover fully down. (See “Step 4” on page 15.)
TONER OR IMAGE DRUM CARTRIDGE INAPPROPRIATE
If you install either a toner cartridge or image drum unit that is 
incompatible with your printer, the error LED will flash at 
approximately 1-second intervals and the printer will not start.
LOW TONER CONDITION
If the toner cartridge is out of toner the error LED will flash. In 
this case you may be able to resume printing for a small number 
of pages by opening and then closing the top cover. Note also 
that this condition may be occur even after you have installed a 
new toner cartridge if you forget to correctly position the 
coloured toner lever when installing the toner cartridge. (See 
instruction sheet supplied with new toner cartridge.)
OTHER POSSIBLE ERROR CONDITIONS
If your printer, or the printing preferences on your computer 
specify a different paper size or media type than the one you are 
using, this may cause an error condition to occur. (See “Setting 
printing preferences” on page 16.)
If an error only occurs when trying to print one particular job, it 
may be that the page contains corrupted data, or data that is too 
complex for the amount of available printer memory. In this case 
try to simplify the page content.
HARDWARE FAULT INDICATION
If your printer develops a hardware fault all three status LEDs will 
flash fast (flicker approximately four times a second). In this case 
you should contact your service representative or your Oki dealer 
for advice and support.
