What happens at power-up

All indicators on the printerÕs front panel light up for approximately

30 seconds, and the printer goes through a series of self-tests. The printer takes 1 to 3 minutes (depending on the amount of memory installed) to warm up and complete the self-tests.

■Check the indicators on the front and back panels of the printer:

■Front

All indicators light for about 30 seconds, then all but the POWER indicator go out for about 60 seconds; the READY light blinks for a few seconds. When both the POWER and READY lights are on, the self-tests are complete.

■Back

The status indicator lights for about 3 seconds; then goes off and on Ñ Þrst rapidly; then slowlyÑ then it blinks regularly, indicating normal operation.

■When the self-tests run successfully, the Phaser 480X prints a startup page (if the startup page is enabled), which takes from 1 to 4 minutes to print. The READY indicator blinks while the startup page is printing.

Note When you receive your printer from Tektronix, the startup page is disabled. Because it contains useful information on printer configuration and print count, you might wish to enable the startup page. When enabled, the startup page prints whenever the printer is powered up or reset. Refer to “Enabling/disabling the startup page” on page A-1 for general information. You can also generate a configuration page with detailed information useful for troubleshooting. Refer to “Configuration page” on page A-3 for more information. Refer to the Phaser 480X

Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference for detailed information.
