Operator mode
In operator mode, appropriate information is displayed in accordance with the
status of the printer.
The operator basic screen looks as follows, indicating that the Drystar AXYS is
ready for operation and that no job is currently being executed.
When the printer is busy with at least one print job, the print queue screen is
displayed:
The progress indicator keeps the user informed of the progress of a process
(e.g., calculation of a bitmap, printing of a film). The line is gradually filled
from left to right, from 0% to 100% as the process proceeds.
Refer to “Managing the print queue” on page 67
Note: On the print queue screen the modality name defined during
installation will be used to refer to the corresponding modality. In case a
nickname (daily used name) has been defined during installation, this
nickname will be used.

QA short beep acknowledges and terminates the entry.
QThe Drystar AXYS will sound a long beep if you press a key that is not to be used
at that moment.
Audio signals
The Drystar AXYS gives status information via beeps. The length of the beep
indicates the response of the system to a key command.
QA short beep means that Drystar AXYS has accepted the key command and is
starting the operation.
QA long beep means that you have pressed a non-active key or that the
Drystar AXYS has rejected the key command.

accompanies an error or warning message. Refer to “Troubleshooting
checklist” on page 127.

Working with Compact flash cards
(CF-card)
The Drystar AXYS is equipped with an external CF-card slot, which is located at
the rear side.
To insert a CF-card in the Drystar AXYS:
1Hold the CF-card vertically with the connector holes in front of the slot and with
the flat surface pointing to the left. In that case the cut-away (a) and the rim (b)
are pointing to the right.
2Insert the CF-card gently into the slot and push it until the unlocking lever
underneath the slot comes out.
Note: If you cannot push the CF-card completely into its position, this
means that you have to turn it 180 degrees (while keeping the connector
holes faced to the slot).
