The asterisks are supposed to be displayed when the printer is first booting up, but they should go away after a while and the printer should perform its memory check and then come to ready.  If you leave the printer on, does it stay on the asterisks forever?  If so, one of the circuit boards (possibly the formatter board) may be bad.
