Note: All covers must be installed on the SureMark printer during operation.
There are two triangular-shaped buttons and two LED indicators located on top of
the printer. The buttons serve multiple functions.
When the topmost indicator is on continuously, the printer is powered ON and ready
for printing. When the indicator blinks, one of the following conditions exists:
v The printer is out of paper.
v The cover is open.
v The printer is offline.
v The printer has a nonrecoverable home error.
The second LED is the Document Present indicator. It lights when a document is
inserted far enough into the document insert (DI) station to reach the DI sensor.
When this LED blinks, the DI station is waiting for you to insert a document.
The topmost button is the customer receipt (CR) paper feed button. Press this
button to advance the CR paper. The lower button is the document feed button.
Press this button to advance the document.
If you press both buttons at the same time and then release them, the document
insert throat opens. The throat must be open to insert a document from the side.
Press and then release both buttons again to close the throat.
Both buttons are also used to test the printer. See "Offline tests" on page 62 for
additional button functions.
