### LEDs

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

LED | Status | Description
--- | --- | ---
Jam () | Orange | On | A paper jam has occurred. (See Clearing paper jams.)
Online/Error () | Off | The machine is off-line.
Green | On | The machine is in power saver mode. The machine is on-line and can receive data from the computer.
Blinking | When the LED blinks slowly, the machine is receiving data from the computer. When the LED blinks rapidly , the machine is printing data.
Red | On | The cover is open. Close the cover. 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 your service representative. The 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 minor error has occurred and the machine is waiting for the error to be cleared. When the problem is cleared, the machine resumes. Toner is low. Replace 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.)
[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, printing interval, media type, and media size. Some amount of toner may remain in the cartridge even when red LED turned on and the printer stops printing.

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