Quick Reference

Understanding the Operator Panel

The printer operator panel has two buttons and two lights. Lights indicate the status of the printer.

Buttons are used to continue or cancel the current print job.

When the printer is turned on, both lights cycle as a self test is performed. Also, when the printer is

reset, or when a printer setting is changed in the menus, both lights cycle.

•Press and release Continue to resume printing.

•Press and release Continue twice quickly to display the secondary light sequence.

•Press Continue from the Ready state to print the menu settings page.

•Press and hold Cancel to cancel the current job.

•Press and hold Cancel until both lights come on to reset the printer.

Understanding the operator panel lights

The operator panel lights mean different things, depending on their sequence. Lights that are off, on,

and/or blinking indicate printer conditions such as printer status, intervention, or service.

Use the light sequence table to find the message being indicated, then click the message for more

information.

Printing the menu settings and network setup page

To print the menu settings and network setup pages, press from the Ready state. The printer

automatically prints the menu settings and network setup pages.

A list of the printer settings and the current default values are printed on the menu settings page. The

current default settings are marked with an asterisk. The network setup page confirms the network

Status is “Connected” and lists the current network settings.

Restoring factory defaults

This function will return most of the settings back to their factory values. The display language and

the settings in the Network and USB menus are not returned to the factory defaults.

To restore the printer to the original factory defaults, press and hold for more than three

seconds.

Note: Before restoring the factory defaults, make sure the host computer or network has

stopped sending information to the printer.

Loading paper or other print media

Loading Tray 1

1Open the paper cover by lifting up until the cover clicks into a fully open position.

2Adjust the slide and attached backstop to the length of the selected print media.

Note: To decrease width, push in on the left guide. To increase width, squeeze the tab

attached to the right guide, and slide it to the right.

Loading paper or other print media

3Place the prepared print media into the tray, and lightly adjust all guides against the loaded

print media edges.

Note: Load letterhead paper with the design side facing up and the top edge of the sheet

feeding into the printer first. Load envelopes with the flap side down and the return

address first. The stamp area will feed through last.

4Close the paper cover.

Canceling a print job

Loading print media into the priority feeder

The priority feeder can be used to make quick runs of print media types or sizes not currently loaded

in Tray 1.

1Adjust the guides to the width of the print media.

2Place the selected print media, with the side to be printed faceup, at the center of the priority

feeder. The print media rests on the Tray 1 paper cover.

3Push the selected print media into the printer until the print media stops.

Note: Do not force print media into the feeder. Forcing print media causes jams.

Canceling a print job

A print job can be canceled from the operator panel or from the computer. The Cancel job light

sequence appears on the operator panel when a job is canceled (see “Cancel Job/Reset printer” on

page 30 of your User’s Guide).

Clearing jams

When a jam occurs, the printer stops, and the Error light on the operator panel blinks. To determine

the location of the jam, view the secondary light sequences. Prepare the printer for jam removal by

opening the paper support and removing all printed pages from the output bin. Then, follow these

steps to clear the entire paper path.

1Open the rear door by sliding the door release button to the right.

2Remove any lodged print media from the paper path.

Warning: When the rear door is open, be careful not to touch the attached roller. Touching

the roller can cause contamination and affect print quality. Do not leave the rear

door open for an extended amount of time. Exposure to light will damage the blue

drum of the long-life photoconductor kit and affect print quality.

CAUTION: The fuser may be hot. To avoid personal injury, use caution when opening the top

door to remove a jam from the fuser area.
