Phaser 840


Printer status display

To display the printer's live status, click Start Status Update on the printer's Current Status Page; the Live Status page is displayed.


NOTE
This type of status display, accessible from the Start status update link, is not implemented on the Phaser 340 and Phaser 550 printers; status for these printers is displayed directly on the Status page.

The page has two parts:

  • The status summary reports information about the printer's status and configuration.
  • The status icon graphically indicates the printer's status. The following table summarizes all of the status icons.
  • Printer status icons

    Icon

    Description

    Ready/Standby

    The printer is ready to accept data.

    Busy

    If the light in the lower-right corner of the icon is yellow, the printer is printing or processing data.

    Jam

    Paper is jammed in the printer. Check the printer to resolve the problem.

    Error

    The triangle in the lower-right of the icon is red, indicating that there is an error at the printer, such as ink or toner empty. Check the printer and try to resolve the problem.

    Warning

    The triangle in the lower-right of the icon is yellow, indicating that there is a non-critical problem at the printer, such as a paper-low or ink-low condition.

    Paper

    This could be caused by any of three conditions:

    • The printer is out of paper.
    • The printing application has requested a paper size not currently loaded in the printer.
    • The printing application has requested that paper be fed manually.

    Check the printer and try to resolve the problem.
