This chapter contains step-by-step instructions for performing most printer operator tasks. The tasks of enabling and disabling attachments, shutting down and restarting the system, and controlling system power are grouped together in the front of the chapter. The remaining tasks are not presented in order of importance or frequency of use.

Notes to the Operator:

1.In some cases, the tasks described in this chapter correspond directly to the action messages you see on the Display Touch Screen windows.

2.The instructions in this section describe exactly how to do each step. They also include tips to help you prevent common problems. Before you begin an unfamiliar task, read all the information. Then carefully follow the step-by-step instructions.

3.For information about other operator tasks, see ªChapter 8. Con®guring the Systemº on page 217 and ªChapter 7. Ordering and Replacing Suppliesº on page 175.

Controlling the System Power

The following ®gure shows a Power Control Panel.

Printer 1 in a duplex or dual simplex printing system has two sets of power controls. One is for the Printer Utility Module (PUM) frame, which is labeled Control Unit on the Power Control Panel. The other is for the printer that is attached to the PUM frame.

Printer 2 in a duplex system and a simplex-only printer also has two sets of power controls. One is for the Advanced Function Common Control Unit (AFCCU) frame, which is labeled Control Unit on the Power Control Panel. The other is for the printer that is attached to the AFCCU frame. Each element in the system (Printer 1 frame, Printer 2 frame, the AFCCU frame, and the PUM frame) has the following:

vA Local/Remote switch

vA Power On switch

vA Power Off if in Local switch.

These switches allow many combinations of Local/Remote power control and power on/off control. Each Power Control Panel in the system also contains a Unit Emergency switch.
