11. Take a test copy, and then make sure that the Data Overwrite icon changes from “Dirty” (solid) to “Dirty” (blinking), and then to “Clear”.
NOTE:
If the Data Overwrite icon does not change to Clear, check to see if there are any active Sample Print or Locked Print jobs. A Sample Print or Locked Print job can only be overwritten after it has been executed.
