Memory Test Procedure

Press and hold down an ordinary key of computer immediately after turning the
copier's main power switch ON.
Press the key until the "Low Memory Test (Low Memory Passed)" count starts. As long as it is an ordi-
nary key, any key (e.g. "z", "6") can be pressed.

Make certain that all memory tests found no problems ("Memory Passed" is then displayed).
When all memory is OK, the copier is able to normally start up.
If any test results are unacceptable (The value after the occurrence of "Ext Memory Passed" is less
than the amount expanded memory.), remove the added memory and run the memory test from the
beginning since the memory may be defective.
