Understanding Printer Messages
The following table explains messages that might display on the
printer’s control panel. Printer messages and their meanings are
listed in alphabetical order, with numbered messages following.
If a message persists:
•
If a message persists requesting that you load a tray, or if a
message indicates that a previous print job is still in the printer’s
memory, press
[Go] to print or press [Cancel Job] to clear the
job from the printer’s memory.
•
If a message persists after performing all of the recommended
actions, contact an HP-authorized service or support provider.
(See the telephone support flyer included with the printer.)
Note Not all messages are described in this user’s guide (many are
self-explanatory).
Some printer messages are affected by the Auto Continue and
Clearable Warning settings from the Configuration Menu in the
printer’s control panel (page B-13).
