Chapter 8. Installing Printer Options
This chapter describes how to install and remove the following options:
v
SIMMs and hard drive (see page 113)
v
The network interface cards (see page 117)
v
The duplex unit (see page 120)
v
The 500-sheet paper tray (see page 125)
v
The envelope tray (see page 131)
v
The 2000-Sheet Input Drawer (see page 131)
Important
To verify that an option is installed correctly, print the configuration page. See
“Printing the Printer Configuration Page” on page 18. Also, make sure you
update your printer driver to indicate the new feature is installed.
Handling Static Sensitive Devices
When you handle options and other computer components, take these precautions:
v
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v
Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters and memory-module kits
by the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry.
v
When you are installing a new option, touch the static-protective package
containing the option to the mounting bracket on the controller card for at least
two seconds. This reduces static electricity from the package and from your body.
v
When possible, unpack the option and install it directly in the controller without
setting the option down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective
package that the option came in on a smooth, level surface and place the option
on it.
v
Do not place the option on the printer cover or other metal surface.
SIMMs and Hard Drives
Optional SIMMs include:
v
Dynamic random access memory (DRAM) SIMMs: 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, or 32MB
v
Flash memory SIMMs: 2MB or 4MB
v
Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS)
To install any SIMM or the hard drive, you must remove the controller card (see
“Removing the Side Cover”).
Removing the Side Cover
Use the following procedure to remove the side cover:
Attention: Do not switch the power off if the printer is printing a page. This action
jams the printer.
1. Switch the printer power off.
2. Unplug the printer from the wall outlet.
