Rear panel at power-up

During the ﬁrst 40 - 60 seconds of the power-up sequence, the rear-panel status indicator (1) goes on and off periodically. After about 40 - 60 seconds, the status indicator blinks continuously, indicating that the printer is ready for normal operation.

Sample prints

After the self-tests run successfully, the printer prints three sample prints, if the sample prints are enabled. These sample prints verify that the printer is ready for normal operation and show you the brilliant color you can get with the Phaser 220. The samples take about four minutes to print. The READY indicator blinks while the sample pages are printing.

When sample prints are enabled, the samples are printed whenever you turn on the printer. For details on how to disable the sample prints, see “Turning off the sample prints” on page 2-27.

Note If the startup page is disabled, the sample prints do not print.
