Hi vadarius5 

When the Wi-Fi indicator light is orange, it may indicate that the printer is:

  • The printer has not yet been configured for a wireless network.
  • The printer is configured for an ad hoc connection, but it is not currently communicating with another ad hoc device.

When the Wi-Fi indicator light is blinking orange, it may indicate that the printer is:

  • The printer is out of the range of the wireless access point (wireless router).
  • The printer is trying to communicate with the wireless access point, but the wireless access point is turned off or not working properly.
  • Either the configured printer or the wireless access point has been turned off and back on, and the printer is trying to establish communications with the network.
  • The wireless settings of the printer may no longer be valid.

Please refer to the link mentioned below and refer to page number 135 to know the troubleshooting steps that might help you fixing the issue.

Hope that helps you.
