## Understanding the status LED

### Status LED

The color of the LED indicates the machine's current status.

Status LED | Description
--- | ---
Off | The machine is off-line. The machine is in sleep mode.
Green | On | The machine is in ready mode or warming up.
Blinking | When the LED blinks slowly, the machine is receiving data from the computer or printing documents. When the LED blinks rapidly, the machine is operating special functions.
Red | On | The inner cover is opened. Close the inner cover completely. There is no paper in the tray. Load paper in the tray. The machine has stopped due to a major error. Your system has some problems. If this problem occurs, contact a service representative. A toner cartridge has almost reached its estimated cartridge life[a]. It is recommended to replace the toner cartridge (See Replacing the toner cartridge).
Blinking | A small amount of toner is left in the cartridge. The estimated cartridge life[a] of toner is close. Prepare a new cartridge for replacement. You may temporarily increase the printing quality by redistributing the toner (See Redistributing toner). The machine is printing in manual feed mode or in manual duplex mode.
Orange | On | A paper jam has occurred (See Clearing paper jams).
[a] Estimated cartridge life means the expected or estimated toner cartridge life, which indicates the average capacity of print-outs and is designed pursuant to ISO/IEC 19752. The number of pages may be affected by operating environment, percentage of image area, printing interval, media type, and media size. Some amount of toner may remain in the cartridge even when red LED is on and the printer stops printing.

Lenovo does not recommend using a non-genuine Lenovo toner cartridge such as one that is refilled or remanufactured. Lenovo cannot guarantee a non-genuine Lenovo toner cartridge's quality. Service or repair required as a result of using non-genuine Lenovo toner cartridges will not be covered under the machine warranty.

All printing errors will appear in the Smart Panel program window. If the problem persists, contact a service representative.
