The operator panel indicates when an operator attention is required via colors and symbols.
When you see an orange or red color indication on the operator panel, tap the tile with the color to see what action is required. You can take action if necessary.

Operator action is possible or required to keep the system running, e.g.: 'You should refill ink', 'You should perform maintenance', 'You should load the correct media type'. |
The system stays operational and most of the time can continue its action for now. |
Red |
|
Operator action is required now, e.g.: 'You must refill ink to continue printing', 'You must remove media from the paper path to continue printing'. |
The system is blocked and will only continue when the indicated action has been performed by the operator. |
Indicators on the operator panel want to get your attention to make you aware of an operator action that is coming up (typically used in the queue).

Media (request) |
|
Load required media for this job. Load a roll with the requested media type and width. The roll width can also be bigger than the size that is requested. |
When the indicator is orange and this job becomes the active job, the system is paused until you solve the issue. |
Cut (request) |
|
Cut the media after this job. |
When the indicator is orange and this job is finished, the system is paused until you solve the issue. |
Attention (indication) |
|
Operator attention is required. When this icon appears in the queue you have to be aware that most likely the media will run out during this job. |
The system continues the action if possible. |
