INTRODUCTION
The Advent xt printer records the time and date of all calls made/answered/cancelled on the
warden call system. All other system activity such as telephone line fault, mains fail, system reset,
etc. is also recorded.

paper feed when changing paper rolls or double-click to perform a self test and print the internal
settings.
LED INDICATOR
The LED indicator on the front of the printer will normally flash short green - long orange, there are
a number of other colour combinations which provide printer status information;

standby mode and any missed calls will be printed.
