Hard disk initialization

A hard disk initialization will erase and reformat the product's hard disk. Perform hard disk initialization only if an error code displays on the control panel indicating a disk error. Always try initializing the hard disk before replacing it.

1.Turn the product on.

2.As the product performs its power-on sequence, press and hold the Menu button until all three lights on the control panel are lit.

3.Press the back arrow . The message INITIALIZE DISC displays on the control panel.

4.Press the OK button. The product initializes the hard disk and continues the power-on sequence.

Skip disk-load

When the power is turned on the product begins the power-on sequence. By performing a power-on bypass, you can cause the product to resume the power-on sequence but not to recognize any installed EIO hard disk. This can be helpful in isolating EIO hard-disk errors.

1.Turn the product off.

2.Turn the product on. When the memory count begins, press and hold the button. Continue holding down the button until all three product control-panel lights flash once and then remain on. This might take up to 10 seconds.

3.Press the button, and then press the Menu button .

4.Press the button or the button until SKIP DISK LOAD is highlighted.

5.Press the OK button. The product continues the power-on sequence but ignores an installed EIO hard disk.

NVRAM initialization

CAUTION: Initializing NVRAM resets the serial number, the event log, the page counts, the calibration settings, and the EIO card. Use the SERVICE menu to restore the serial number and page counts. You also need to reconfigure any computers that print to this product to recognize the product. Initialize NVRAM only when absolutely necessary. In most situations, use a cold reset to reset product variables but still retain the needed values in the SERVICE menu.
