Introduction
The status lights and status sheet provide you with important information about the operation and configuration of the network interface.
a. Status sheet button
b. Status light
c. Data light
d. RJ-45 connector
The network interface has two lights (Status and Data), which indicate the current operating status of the network interface when you first turn on the device, during normal operation, and when errors occur. The status light has two colors (green and orange). The data light is green.
The status lights indicate the network interface status, as follows:

The first time you use the network interface after installing or reinstalling it, turn on the device. Then, while both the status light and the data light are off, hold down the status sheet button for about twenty seconds to initialize the network interface. The length of time needed to hold down the status sheet button varies depending on the device model.
Before you start configuring the network interface, be sure to press and hold down the status sheet button on the network interface to print a status sheet. A status sheet provides important information about the network interface, such as MAC address, device settings, and the device's current status. Press the status sheet button once to print a simple status sheet, or twice to print a full status sheet. You cannot print a status sheet when the device has already started printing, or when it is offline or not ready to print.
