Does anyone have any information on the error lights underneath the printer cover. There are (4) of them and either the leftmost or rightmost light is lit - I can't remember because the printer is not here at my place. Please if anyone has a service manual - or link to one - or know what these error lights mean - I would appreciate it. Thanks,
Sillygirl.
 
Hi,
Her is a quick overview on the information to the error lights.
if you would have the complete manual give me a sign and a will mail it to you. (PDF)
Sometimes the lights on the printer signal a problem.
m Both lights are off. Check to make sure the power cord is plugged in properly
and there is power to the outlet. If you can’t make the printer come on, see
the information about service and support that comes with the printer.
m The error light glows steadily. Either the printer is out of paper or the paper
has misfed. Check your computer screen for messages. See Chapter 2 for
instructions on loading the sheet feeder, or “Paper Is Jammed” and “Paper
or Envelopes Feed Improperly” earlier in this chapter.
m The error light blinks. The print head lid may be open. Turn off the printer,
lift up the printer cover, then open the print head lid inside. Close it firmly,
making sure both sides are firmly latched.
In addition, there is a row of lights under the printer cover that service
technicians can use to diagnose technical problems.

Macpwm,

The lights under the printer cover that service
technicians can use to diagnose technical problems is what I want to know about. I have the users manual, but not the service manual.

Thanks!
