STATUS INDICATIONS
The Status Indicator at the front of the printer has a number of color combinations, which repeat in up to a 4-phase
pattern to provide status information (see table below).
In summary, if the indicator is constant green it indicates that the printer is operating normally from its battery pack.
Flashing on and off indicates that Spooling mode is active and no printing can take place. Orange advises the
battery is being charged. Red warns of a low battery or other problem.
No light indicates that the unit is in sleep mode, has a discharged battery, or the battery is not connected.

Other patterns may be programmed into the printer by the system designer.
