Hard Drive Considerations
Chapter 5: Using the Hard Drive/ Downloading Fonts ❖ 5-3
Formatting the
Hard Drive
When a new unformatted hard disk drive is installed in the
printer, it must be formatted before it will be available for use.
Formatting can be done when the printer is powered on after
the installation.
The disk can be reformatted at any time. This is useful when
it is desired to erase everything on the disk—all fonts, macros,
and spooled print data. Also, in the unusual case of a problem
with the disk, it may be desirable to reformat it, again at the
expense of erasing everything on it.
Formatting is accomplished by selecting the Format the
Disk option in the Test Menu. You will be warned of losing
data and asked two times to confirm the formatting by
pressing Up .
