3-4 Phaser 5500 Printer Service Manual
Power On Self Test (POST)
POST diagnostics provide a quick means of isolating a defective subsystem
associated with the Image Processor Board and SDRAM. There are two kinds of
POST faults: soft and hard. A soft fault is any fault that allows the operating system to
initialize. Soft faults do not stop printer operation and are reported on the Startup Page
after the system is running. A hard fault prevents the operating system from
initializing stopping further printer operation. Hard faults are indicated with blinking
LEDs and the failed test appearing on the display.
The following tests execute when the printer is powered on after the Boot Loader
runs, and before the operating system is loaded and initialized. Bypass POST by
pressing the OK button at power on until the splash screen appears.
