Quick Reference Understanding the Operator Panel The printer operator panel has two buttons and six lights (Continue is both a light and a button). Lights indicate the status of the printer. Buttons are used to continue or cancel the current print job. When the printer is turned on, all lights cycle as a self test is performed. Also, when the printer is reset, or when a printer setting is changed in the menus, all lights cycle.
