bb

_________________________________________

Printer initialization takes approximately 60 seconds. When 

READY/

IDLE

 displays, the printer is ready to accept print jobs.

Note:

Due to the movement during shipping, XANTÉ
recommends that you calibrate your printer after setup.

(X-ACT)” in Chapter 3 (Macintosh) or Chapter 4 (PC).

Following initialization, a start-up page prints if that feature is
enabled. This page lists selected resolution, installed RAM, hard disk
identities, page count, enabled interfaces, and network information (if
Ethernet upgrade is installed). Review this page for proper printer
configuration. See “Start-up Page” in chapter 6 for details.
