Types of messages

While using the product, messages will appear on the control panel display. These
messages provide information about the product's activity. While some types of
messages just provide information about the product's status, other types of messages
might require that you take the appropriate action (often specified in the message itself)
before the product can continue functioning.

Status messages

Status messages reflect the current state of the device. They inform you of normal
operation and require no action to clear them. They change as the state of the device
changes. Whenever the device is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning
messages, the status message READY appears if the device is turned on.

Warning messages
Warning messages inform you of events that require your attention, but they do not
prevent the device from operating. An example of a warning message is a low ink warning.
These messages appear until you resolve the condition.

Error messages
Error messages communicate that some action must be performed, such as adding
media or clearing a media jam. These messages are usually accompanied by a blinking
red Attention light. Take the appropriate action to continue printing.
