PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE WHEN INSTALLING
ACCESSORIES
•
Disconnect the power cord
Never remove the control board cover while the power is turned on.
To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the
power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external
accessories.
•
Discharge static electricity
The control board and internal accessories (network interface card or
memory module) are sensitive to static electricity. Before installing or
removing any internal accessories, discharge static electricity from your
body by touching something metal, such as the metal back plate on any
device plugged into a grounded power source. If you walk around before
finishing the installation, repeat this procedure to discharge any static
electricity again.

After installing an accessory such as an optional tray, PS driver users
must do the additional setting. Go to the PS printer properties and set
the added accessory activated.

UPGRADING A MEMORY MODULE
Your printer has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM). Use this memory
module slot to install additional memory.
The printer has two memory slots with a factory pre-installed memory
module in one slot. When you are expanding the memory capacity, you can
add a memory module to the vacant memory slot. It is strongly
recommended that you expand a memory module in vacant memory slot
only without removing a pre-installed memory module (see "Ordering
supplies and accessories" on page 83).
Installing a memory module
1.
Turn the printer off and unplug all cables from the printer.
2.
Release the screws and remove the rear cover.
3.
Release the screws, then lift up the cover slightly and pull the cover to
the right.
4.
Take out a new memory module from the plastic bag.
When installing accessories, battery inside the printer is a service
component. Do not change it by yourself.
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose
used batteries according to the instructions.
