Formatting the Hard Disk Drive
When installing a new hard drive (HDD) or when trying to restore an inoperative printer, you can format
the hard drive. Formatting the HDD writes over the disk allocation tables which point to where
information is stored on the drive. After you format the HDD, the printer can no longer access files and
settings that were on it. Use Format HDD to remove access to sensitive information when moving the
printer from your group.
Note: Formatting the HDD does not remove secure or sensitive files from the printer hard disk drive,
it only overwrites the allocation table. A formatted HDD still contains file and setting information
that can be retrieved. To remove all sensitive information from the HDD, erase and overwrite the
entire drive.
To format the HDD:
1. At the printer control panel, press the Machine Status button.
2. Touch Tools, then touch Admin Settings.
3. Touch Format HDD.
4. To format the drive, touch Yes, Start.
To cancel, touch the X button or select No, Cancel.
5. To return to the Service Tools menu, press the Back arrow. To return to the Services Home menu,
press the Services Home button.
WARNING: Formatting the HDD renders all previous files, pending files, and settings inaccessible by
the printer.
Adjusting the Altitude
Use Adjust Altitude to adjust the altitude to match that of the location where the printer is installed. If
the altitude setting is incorrect, it can cause print-quality problems.
To adjust the altitude:
1. At the printer control panel, press the Machine Status button.
2. Touch Tools, then touch Admin Settings.
3. Touch Adjust Altitude.
4. To select an altitude from the list, touch it.
5. Touch OK.
6. To return to the Service Tools menu, press the Back arrow. To return to the Services Home menu,
press the Services Home button.
