requiring intervention.

Meaning
x represents the number of the
output bin that is full when the MFP
bins are linked.
The MFP is busy receiving,
processing, or printing data.
The MFP flushes corrupted data and
discards the current print job.
The MFP is in Hex Trace mode.
Hex Trace isolates the source of a
print job problem. When Hex Trace is
active, all data sent to the MFP prints
in hexadecimal and character
representation.
The MFP maintenance counter has
exceeded its limit, so the MFP
requires maintenance.
A network interface is the active
communication link.
A parallel interface is the active
communication link.
A serial interface is the active
communication link.
The MFP is processing data through
the specified USB port.
This is the Printer Job Language
(PJL) Ready message.
The MFP is ready to receive and
process data. It is reducing its
electricity consumption while idle. If
the MFP remains inactive for the
period of time specified in the Power
Saver menu item (60 minutes is the
factory default), the Power Saver
message replaces the Ready
message.
Understanding MFP messages
Action
Remove print media from the bins. The message
clears once the output level of the linked bins is no
longer full.
Press Stop to access the job queue.
Exit Hex Trace to print jobs normally. To exit Hex
Trace, unplug the MFP.
Replace the maintenance items. If necessary, reset
the MFP maintenance counter.
Wait for the message to clear.
Notes:
• The current interface appears on the Menu Settings
Page. Interfaces shown without an x or y means the
active host interface is a standard interface.
• x indicates the active interface is connected to the
MFP through PCI connector x.
• x, y indicates the active interface is connected to
the MFP through channel y on PCI connector x, or
that x equals 0 on the standard network interface.
Send a job to print.
Press any control panel button.
