When an error occurs, the printer beeps and the POWER lamp flashes orange. The number
of beeps indicates the cause of the problem.

Two beeps: Out of paper, or paper feed error
Three beeps: Paper jam
Four beeps: BJ Cartridge out of ink
Five beeps: Cartridge not installed correctly
Six beeps: BJ Cartridge not installed
Seven beeps: BJ Cartridge defective
Eight beeps: Waste ink tank almost full
Nine beeps: Automatic print head alignment failed
The POWER lamp flashes orange and green alternately with beeps: Service error
