Switching the Power On
To switch the printer on, turn the power switch on the CLARiTY
®
controller to the I (On) position (Figure 3-2).
Once power is switched ON, the controller will boot-up. This will take
approximately 90 seconds, during which startup screen appears.
On successful boot-up, the home page appears (Figure 3-3 on page 3-4).
An initialization process of 15 seconds begins, during which the printer
calibrates the ribbon drive. The status bar flashes the words STARTING
UP and the amber LED flashes on and off. When the process is complete,
the home page changes, as follows:
• The status panel changes from STARTING UP to OFFLINE.
• The Consumables area displays the percentage of ribbon remaining.
• In the Control Frame, the Start and Stop buttons are enabled.
