Printer Messages

The printer displays three types of messages: service messages,
status messages, and attendance messages. Service messages
indicate a problem that requires a service technician. Status
messages provide information about the current state of the printer.
They require no action. Attendance messages alert the operator to
printer problems that require operator intervention.
