Status Monitor

The Status Monitor alerts you when an error or warning occurs, for example, when the top 
cover is open or toner is running low.

the computer screen when an error or warning occurs.

The Printing Status window displays the status of the printer (Printer Ready, Printer 
Offline, and Error-Check Printer) and the name of the job when you send a job to print.
