Front panel messages
The front panel displays messages indicating the condition of the printer.
Some messages, such as Standby and Warming Up, simply provide status
information. These messages do not require user action. Error messages,
such as Jam:Open Front Cover, require you to perform some action such
as remove a paper jam. Use the information in the following table to
determine an appropriate action for each type of message.
You can learn more detailed information regarding the problem by checking
the associated seven-digit error code that is stored in the printerÕs
Service Support/Fault History front panel menu. Refer to the Phaser 380
printerÕs web page for more information:
http://www.tek.com/Color_Printers/userdoc/introduction.html
The printer may display a numeric error code when it detects certain types
of problems. If you see a numeric error code, Þrst write down the number.
Try turning off the printerÕs power and wait at least 15 seconds before
turning the power on again. If that does not solve the problem, call your
local Tektronix ofÞce for assistance or call Tektronix Service in the U.S. and
Canada at 1-800-835-6100.
