Solution
Contact your IBM service
representative. NOTE: You
can still print, but you
cannot save configuration
changes as the NVRAM is
defective.
Press Stop then Start.
No action necessary.
NOTE: If the printer was in
NOT READY state when
the energy saver mode
was activated, it will remain
in the NOT READY state
until the START key is
pressed.

with degraded print
quality.) Contact your IBM
service representative.
