Status Messages - IBM INFO PRINT 3000 Operator's Manual

Status Messages

Status messages describe the condition of a printer or the system. Sometimes they
are a response to operator action.
Status messages are only for your information and do not necessarily mean that
something is wrong. However, if a printer is not performing the way you think it
should, a status message can give you a clue about what to do.
Figure 42 shows a sample Printer Status window. The Printer Status window
automatically appears when the system is powered-on. If you have closed the
window, you can see it again by SELECTING Printer Status from the Operate
pull-down menu.
