Installing a SIMM
Important
Follow the instructions for handling static-sensitive devices described on page 127.
Attention: Printer power should be off before performing this procedure.
Use the following procedure to install a SIMM:
1. The controller card must be removed before installing a SIMM. Follow the
procedure “Removing the Controller Card” on page 129.
2. Locate the correct socket group for the type of SIMM you are installing. There are
two socket groups: one contains two sockets, the other contains four sockets. The
DRAM SIMMs (memory) must be installed in one of the sockets in the socket
group of two. The data stream SIMMs and the flash memory SIMMs must be
installed in one of the sockets in the socket group of four.
SIMMs should be loaded from the left to the right but the position of the SIMM
within the group of sockets does not matter.
Note: Early printers may have the PCL5e SIMM already installed in socket 0. If
the SIMM is not installed, PCL5e data stream support is integrated into the
controller card.
3. Hold the SIMM with the notch facing up and to the left. Insert the SIMM at a 45
degree angle and move it into position in the socket. Using your thumbs, press
with even pressure on both ends of the SIMM until the SIMM is firmly seated in the
socket.
