Getting Set Up 2

Letting the printer warm up

After you have installed the maintenance tray and the media tray, allow the printer about 15 minutes to warm up and perform self-tests. As the printer warms up, note the following:

Front panel display. When you Þrst turn on the printer, two indicator lights come on, the power light and the error light. During the warm-up cycle, the top power indicator blinks on and off, the error light goes out, and the front panel displays a series of ÒWarming upÓ messages. A percentage value is shown to indicate the progress of the warm-up cycle. The cycle is complete when the front panel displays 100%, then Ready.

Startup noises. As the printer initializes, you will hear a series of noises; these are normal and are not an indication of problems with the printer.

Cleaning Page. The printer outputs a color-striped ÒCleaning PageÓ as part of its self-maintenance. Refer to page 7-16 for more information on the Cleaning Page.

Startup Page. The printer outputs a page that lists your printerÕs name and serial number, the number of pages printed, installed interface ports, and other information. This Startup Page automatically prints whenever you turn on your printer. To turn off the Startup Page, refer to page 6-6.

Ready message. The front panel displays Ready or the printerÕs name when the printer is available for printing.
