Manual light indicated manual feed mode and last but not least Data light blinks in case of printer waiting for feed command.

Saving features- The printer cannot be accused of not being environmentally friendly as it comes with a wonderful built-in power saving feature. Upon setup your printer will default to power saving mode with a turn-off option. When no data is received or none of the keys are pressed for a pre-determined time frame the device will immediately go into power save mode.
