Abstract

A printing apparatus includes non-transparent doors and/or drawers on a body of the printing apparatus. The non-transparent doors and drawers allow access to internal areas of the body of the printing apparatus. A processor is within the body of the printing apparatus, and the processor controls actions of the printing apparatus. Also, at least one internal graphic user interface display is within the body of the printing apparatus. The internal graphic user interface display is operatively connected to the processor, and the internal graphic user interface display is positioned to be observable only when the non-transparent doors and drawers are open.
