Using the front panel
The front panel is a touch-sensitive screen with a graphical user interface; it is located on the front left of
the printer. It gives you complete control of your printer: from the front panel, you can print, view
information about the printer, change printer settings, perform calibrations and tests, and so on. The
front panel also displays alerts (warning and error messages) when needed.
The front panel has a large central area to display dynamic information and icons. On the left and right
sides you can see up to six fixed icons at different times. Normally they are not all displayed at the
same time.
To the right of the front panel is the Power key, with which you can turn the printer on or off. The key is
illuminated when the printer is on. It flashes when the printer is in transition between on and off.
