NVRAM initialization

Initialization of NVRAM should always be executed immediately after replacing the formatter board. This procedure aligns the firmware with the formatter. Not initializing NVRAM could result in deterioration of print quality.

CAUTION

Initializing NVRAM will erase several of the memory settings (including page count, printer serial number, and the event log).

Note

Before initializing NVRAM, print a configuration page and a menu map to verify the current printer settings. Use the information on these pages to reset the customer’s printer settings.
