completely or mostly blank.

One of the following:

• Missing, unmatched, incorrect,

or faulty DIMMs

• Corrupt system software

1. Check for missing DIMMs and reseat the DIMMs to remove 

any oxidation on the connectors (see 

page 99

). 

2. If the problem persists, test the DIMMs by removing 

all DIMMs except for the one installed in J11, and 
reboot the system.

If the system boots to Idle, install a different DIMM in 
J11 and reboot the system. Continue to install a 
different DIMM in the socket and reboot the system 
until the system fails to reach Idle. The last DIMM that 
you installed may be faulty and should be replaced.

:

If the system fails to reach Idle with each DIMM 

installed in J11, the DIMM socket may be faulty and you 
may need to replace the motherboard.

3. If the problem persists, reinstall the system software.

A print job stalls or stops after 
one or a few pages.

PostScript or application error

1. Cancel the imagePRESS Server print job.

2. If this fails to clear the problem, reboot the 

imagePRESS Server.

3. If the problem persists, ask the network administrator to 

issue the Clear Server command.

Missing, incorrect, or faulty DIMMs or 
faulty DIMM connections

1. Power off the imagePRESS Server; check for missing 

DIMMs and reseat the DIMMs to remove any oxidation on 
the connectors (see 

page 99

).

Make sure that an even number of DIMMs is installed. 
Odd-numbered configurations are not supported.

2. Verify the memory amount on the Configuration page.

3. If the problem persists, test the DIMMs by removing 

all DIMMs except for the one installed in J11, and 
reboot the system.

If the system boots to Idle, install a different DIMM in 
J11 and reboot the system. Continue to install a 
different DIMM in the socket and reboot the system 
until the system fails to reach Idle. The last DIMM that

may need to replace the motherboard.

4. If the problem persists after replacing the DIMMs, you 

may need to replace the motherboard (see
