Meaning of the Indicator Light Patterns
All of the Link-OS Desktop printers have five common status indicators.
These fiveindicators help you identify issues. The individual indicators tell you the general area of
interest.The indicators may be off or on in a variety of lighting patterns of red, green, or amber (orange/
yellow). The status indicators can flash (blink), fade (bright to off), alternate between colors, or just remain
on. The status information that these lighting patterns represent is detailed in this section.
