DISPLAY PANEL MESSAGES
There are four types of display panel message:
>Status information
>Menu (functions) information
>Configuration information
>Help information
STATUS INFORMATION
Status information is associated with three printer states:
In the Information state, such as idling or printing, the printer 
is able to process print jobs.
In the Warning state, the printer has encountered some minor 
problem but is still able to process print jobs.
In the Error state, the printer has encountered a problem and 
cannot continue printing until the user has intervened and 
removed the cause of the trouble.
The top two lines of the display panel show the printer status. The 
bottom of the display panel normally shows a bar chart of the toner 
usage.
MENU (FUNCTIONS) INFORMATION 
There are three types of menu (functions) information:
User menus: accessed by pressing the Enter button, Up-
arrow or Down-arrow button on the control panel. These 
menus are available to the general user to make various 
settings that are used in the running of the printer.
Administrator menu: accessed by pressing the Enter button 
for more than 2 seconds while turning on the printer power 
supply (including Restart). Available to administrator level 
users. Restricts the changes that general users can make via 
the user menus.

arrow and Down-arrow buttons together for more than 2

Restart). Available to support staff to allow printer 
configurations and special functions to be set.
CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
Configuration information displays printer configuration 
information such as internal firmware versions.
Menu options at each level can be scrolled through by moving the 
highlight with the Up-arrow/Down-arrow buttons and a 
highlighted option at that level can be selected by pressing the 
Enter button. When the lowest level menu has been selected, you 
can change the setting for that menu by selecting the required 
highlighted value from a list or by entering a numeric value. In other 
cases, you can display or print configuration information.
HELP MODE
When an error has occurred, press the Help button. Information 
displays that will help you correct the error.
DISPLAY PANEL MESSAGES
The display panel messages, supplemented by the Help messages 
where appropriate, are intended to be self-explanatory. More 
information on typical messages is provided in “Appendix A – Display 
Panel Messages” on page 131.
USING THE MENUS
NOTE
Menu details are given in “Appendix B – Menu system” on 
page 133 for reference.
The Enter, Up-arrow, Down-arrow and Back buttons are used to 
move through the printer menus. You can adjust settings (e.g. set 
the paper size for Tray 1) or view information (e.g. how much is left 
of a selected consumable).
Many of these menu settings can be, and often are, overridden by 
settings in the Windows printer drivers. However, several of the 
driver settings can be left at Printer Setting, which will then default 
to the settings entered in these printer menus.
