Your Hard Disk Drive has failed. Toshiba Digital Copiers do this exact thing when the drive fails as the operating software for the copier is contained on the drive. Look at it as being similar to a computer which will not fully boot up when turned on if there is no hard drive available with an operating system on it. Good news is that the drive is a standard computer drive so they are cheap to buy. The bad news is you will need a trained Toshiba technician to install and then load the firmware onto the hard drive before the machine will run again. I have got machines like this to at least warm up and make copies by "bumping" the machine constantly after turning them on until they boot up. This works on a few of them because you are eccentially bumping the drive into starting to spin up. Once they spin up they will at least come to ready.
Good Luck and Thank You for using Fixya.

Thanks. I solved my problem by formatting the hard drive :
- Switch off then on, pressing 0 and 8 keys
- Press 690 and choice 2
Good, but too late. I found the solution few days before your answer...
Thanks
