    The temperature gauge displays the printer's temperature. It indicates the current temperature and tells you when your printer is ready to print. If your Wi-Fi box is not connected to a printer (or it isn't detecting one) this gauge will disappear.
    The gauge shows three steps in the process:

    blue
    : Temperature is too low
    orange
    : Temperature is low but rising
    red
    : Temperature is OK
