SPX NOT NEEDED
OPTIONS ENABLED The user has attempted to use the
SPX to turn on printer options that
are already enabled. In such a
case the SPX does not copy the
security key serial number into its
memory and does not deplete
itself. 1. Remove the SPX from the RJ-12 Debug Port.
2. Cycle printer power.
TESTING HARDWARE
PLEASE WAIT Status message when printer runs
self-tests and initialization
routines. No action required, but if the printer “hangs” at this message, refer to
“Printer does not complete IML,” page 185.
TOP OF FORM SET Non-error status message. No action required.
WAITING FOR
ETHERNET ADAPTER Status message that appears
when printer is first powered on if
the internal Network Interface
Card is installed. An Ethernet
adapter must be detected early in
the power up sequence so the
printer can tell the adapter it has
been detected and continue with
its own power up sequence.
Compared to the printer, the
Ethernet adapter takes a long
time to complete its internal
diagnostic tests, so the boot code
allows the adapter to power up in
parallel with the printer to reduce
its effect on overall boot time No action required, but if the printer “hangs” with this message
displayed, refer to the ethernet reset procedures in the
Ethernet
User’s Manual.
WAITING FOR PROGRAM
DOWNLOAD Emulation download mode has
been activated, but program
download has not yet begun. No action required.
