IBM A00 Printer User Manual


 
Throughout this book, procedures instruct you to view the display on the operator
panel, to view a status indicator, or to press a function key. The procedure then
describes the correct response.
Operator Panel Display
The 16-character display shows several types of messages:
v Information messages
v Intervention required messages
v Power On Configuration messages
v Program Configuration messages
v Error messages
Audible Alarm
The audible alarm beeps to let you know of a printer status condition or an error
such as an end-of-forms condition, forms jam, or top cover open.
Some operations you are asked to perform, such as opening the top cover when
the printer is online, cause the alarm to sound. In this case, press the Online key
before you open the top cover to prevent the alarm from sounding.
You can set the audible alarm off in the Power On Configuration menu. See “Alarm”
on page 102 for more information.
Status Indicators
Table 1 on page 8 describes the six status indicators shown in Figure 3 on page 8.
