The Ready-to-Work indicator shows the current PA30 status.
When the indicator is steady blue, the print engine is ready for
print jobs.
If the indicator is blinking, an error has occurred. On the PA30,
press F5 to see the error message in the display. If several errors
occur simultaneously, only the most significant error message
appears. Once this error has been cleared, the next significant
error message appears in the display.
For a list of possible error messages, see
Ready-to-Work Indicator Descriptions" on page 110.
The printer can also return error messages to the host PC. For
more information, see the Intermec Fingerprint v8.xx
Programmer's Reference Manual.
You can also configure the Ready-to-Work indicator to work with
your application. For more information, see "RTW" in the
