3.4 Printer Status
The list of printers changes its appearance depending on the current
status of each printer. This makes it easy to find a printer not
operating or disconnected. The following list displays all possible
status states that might occur.
Ready Printer connected and operational
Printer restarted Printer restarted, will change status at
next broadcast. See options for more
details about broadcast settings.
Disconnected Printer disconnected. The printer has
stopped answering to broadcast calls.
Upgrading… Printer firmware is being upgraded. See
operations for more information about
printer firmware upgrading.
Error states All other states are regarded as error
states (by NetCenter). Refer to the
Labelpoint manual for more information
about the system status that can occur
for each printer model.
During normal operation, when a printer is connected and ready or
restarted, the list entry is displayed in default text colour on a default
window background colour (e.g. black text on white background
when using Windows default settings). Printer offline is displayed in
inactive text colour on a default window background.
