1.5 Powering On the Printer

70/92 PPM

The location of the printer’s power supply switch is shown below. The marks on the switch represent the characters “O” for off and “I” for on.

184 ppm

The entire system should be powered on and off using the main power switch shown below. To do this, both the front and rear engine power switches must remain in the on position. If either the front or rear engine power switch is in the off position an error will occur or the OCP display will not come up. In this situation turn off the main power switch, turn on the power to the front and/or rear engine, then turn on the main power switch.

Finisher

Main Power Switch

Rear Engine

Front Engine

When powered on, the printer and the finisher go through a power-up sequence that takes approximately 4 minutes. During the power-up sequence, the printer runs a series of internal tests.

Caution:

Wait at least 5 seconds to power on the printer after powering off. When the printer cannot be powered on, wait at least 30 seconds, then power on the printer.

Warning!

In the event of an emergency, power off the printer by setting the power switch to O.
