Disks,” later in this section, contains more information on external
hard disks.
9 Reconnect all interface cables and the power cord, turn on
any external hard disks, and then turn on the printer.
» Note:
For the printer to recognize external hard disks, each hard
disk must be turned on before you turn on the printer.
10 If you’ve just installed a new hard disk—but not a Kanji hard
disk—format it.
Use the instructions given later in this section.
▲ Caution:
DO NOT under any circumstances format a Kanji hard
disk—it is pre-formatted at the factory with QMS Kanji fonts.
Reformatting this disk erases all data, fonts, and files.
If a Kanji hard disk is reformatted or if data is modified so that it
can’t be recognized by the printer, you must return the disk to
QMS for servicing. This is not covered by your warranty.
11 Ensure that the printer recognizes the disk(s).
If the printer recognizes the disk(s)
DISK ONLINE prints on the printer start-up page (if it’s
enabled).
DISK ONLINE prints on the standard status page or on the
first page of the advance status page.
If the printer doesn’t recognize the disk(s), see chapter 6, “Trou-
bleshooting,” in the
Operation
manual.
Use the following instructions if you ever need to remove an IDE-
SCSI board from the printer (for example, if you decide to install an
optional IDE internal hard disk after the IDE-SCSI board is already
installed).
