CHAPTER 2 SETTING UP THE PRINTER

!Caution

Always wait at least 5 seconds after turning off the power before turning it on again.

Do not turn the power off while the printer is printing as this may cause a paper jam and adversely affect the printer.

The printer performs self-diagnosis at start-up to check its hardware and software. If the printer should find any problems, the display will change to show the corresponding error message. See “ TROUBLESHOOTING” in Chapter 6.

The display shows several messages quickly at start-up. If the printer detects no errors, the printer initializes. This will take several minutes during which time the LCD will display the following message :

LJ WAIT 001P T1AUTO

K C M Y

Once the printer has finished initializing, it automatically goes on-line and the message changes to show the current printer status and settings as shown below:

LJ READY 001P T1
