Startup page prints even though it is disabled
The printer’s power-up self-test can detect problems that do not necessarily make
the printer completely inoperable. Examples of these

non-fatal

errors include faulty
printer ports and some memory failures.
If the printer detects a non-fatal error at power-up, the startup page prints, even if
you have disabled it. In this case, the page contains one or more of the error
messages listed in the following table. Depending on your needs, you may not
need to call for service immediately.
Message Description
Parallel Port failed
I/O Card failed
SCSI Port failed
The named port is not working. The other ports can still be used.
DRAM SIMM x failed One of the memory SIMMs is not working. In this message,
x
indicates the number of the SIMM that failed. Since the printer’s
base memory is still working, the printer can still be used, but
throughput may suffer.
Extended Features SIMM
failed The Extended Features SIMM is not working. The printer can be
used, but no access to Print Preview, Reprint, and Copystation; no
access to the 22 extra fonts. The base fonts are still available, but
requests for the optional fonts will be replaced with Courier.
