Top Panel Switch LED Functions
Switch Description
POWER LED
(green)
 Illuminates continuously as a solid green light when the
printer is powered up.
 Used to power up the printer.
 When on, this switch invokes the Soft Power circuit,
which cycles power to the printer.
PAUSE LED
(amber)
 Illuminates as a solid amber light (along with the green
POWER LED) whenever the printer is in either the
Offline Idle or Offline Print mode.
 Extinguishes when the printer is in either the Online Idle
or Online Print mode.
ALARM LED
(red)
Displays as either a blinking red light or a solid red light
(along with the green POWER LED) when any of the
following conditions are detected:
 If a Warning message displays on the TDU, the ALARM
LED displays as a blinking red light. Processing,
however, is not terminated.
See page 5-17 for a list of Warning messages.
 If either a Recoverable or Fatal error is detected,
processing is terminated. The ALARM LED displays as a
solid red light, the PAUSE LED displays as a solid
amber light, the POWER LED displays as a solid green
light, and the audible alarm sounds. An application error
message also displays on the TDU.
