Formatting a SCSI hard disk

C A U T I O N

The following procedure erases all data from all SCSI hard disks connected to the
printer. Disconnect from the printer any hard disk you do not want reformatted, for
example, a disk containing fonts.

This procedure formats and initializes all SCSI hard disks connected to the printer
so the disks are usable with the PostScript Level 2 Phaser 600 printer. The
formatting process

erases all information already on the disk

; be sure you want the

disk formatted before you use this procedure. If you have a disk containing
information you want to keep, such as fonts, turn off all devices, then disconnect the
disk from the printer before using this file to format other disks.

Use this procedure to format and initialize a SCSI hard disk.

N O T E

Some hard disks are formatted at the factory and do not require this formatting
procedure; check the documentation that came with your hard disk to see if the disk
needs formatting. If your disk is already formatted, go on to
