The Paper LED is solid in one of the following situations:

• The printer is out of paper

• The wrong size paper is loaded in the paper tray

• The printer is waiting for you to insert paper because you specified manual feed in

the paper source section of your application’s Print dialog box.

When the Service LED is flashing, you need to perform some type of simple service
procedure in order to continue printing. If this LED is solid, the printer needs to be
serviced by GCC authorized service personnel.

When a LED indicates that the printer needs attention, you’ll see a message explaining the
situation in the display.

Control panel function keys

On Line key

You use the On Line key to set the printer either on line or off line. The printer is normally
on line — that is, ready to receive data from computers and print it. If you need to use the
control panel menu system, you must set the printer off line. Press the On Line key to set
the printer off line. After you’ve finished using the menu system, press the On Line key
again to set the printer back on line.

If you press the On Line key while a document is being printed, the On Line LED flashes.
This indicates that the printer will finish processing this document and any other waiting
documents, and then go off line.

Manual Feed key

You use the Manual Feed key:

• When you select manual feed as the paper source for the document in your

application’s Print dialog box.

• When the control panel requests you to load a paper size that is not loaded in the

printer’s paper trays.

In both cases, you load the multipurpose feeder with the correct size paper and press the
Manual Feed key.

During the period when you can load paper, the printer displays a “Load Paper” message.
Any jobs received while the printer is displaying this message will wait to print until you
load paper and the current document finishes printing.

The amount of time that the printer will wait for you to load paper can be set throught the
control panel. It’s located in the Manual Feed Timeout submenu of the Paper Handling
menu. The default time is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
