Printer Configuration

Hard Disks

Use the Administration/Disk Operations menu to perform disk opera-
tion processes that appear only when optional hard disks are
installed.

Caution:

If you connect to this printer an external hard disk you

previously used with an earlier QMS Crown printer, this QMS 1660E
Print System software release will automatically reorganize the files
on the hard disk when the printer is turned back on again. (The printer
release number is listed on both the start-up and the status page.)
Once this reorganization is done, the files on the hard disk can no
longer be accessed if the hard disk is reattached to an earlier QMS
Crown printer.

This reorganization process takes time. If, when you first turn the
printer on after attaching a previously used hard disk, it does not
come on line immediately, be patient. Interrupting the reorganization
process could cause all files on the hard disk to be lost.

Formatting a Hard Disk

Use the Administration/Disk Operations/Format Disk menu to format
a hard disk. See chapter 6, “Printer Options,” for instructions.

Notes

When the advanced halftone type is chosen, gamma
correction (Administration/Emulations/PostScript/Gamma
Correction menu) has no effect on the image.

When 1200x1200 dpi resolution is chosen, the basic and
advanced halftone types provide the same result.
