Default Xerox Phaser 8200 Problem/ Question about issue after power-failure


I recently bought a Phaser 8200.... it worked great, but yesterday I
experienced a power failure in my neighborhood. After the power came
back on, the printer restarted (through its long start-up process), and
ejected lots of ink into bin-B...... but now, it seems the printer is
in a different state. The power LCD display is dark, and I emptied
*another* bin of ejected ink just 24 hours later. Now, it seems the
printer is going through a VERY long start-up process after each print
session.

What is going on? I am not sure what to do. Any suggestions would be
immensely appreciated.

Best, Dave

I'm in the wrong office to look at mine, could it have reset its power
off functions so it puts itself into sleep mode too quickly. I don't
know why the display is blank, that doesn't sound too good.

Running the "Reset Printer" function corrected these anomalies. I am
not sure what the deal was, but it's back to working like it was.

(turning off the printer will eject tons of ink)
