rubber, wood, painted metal surfaces, and telephones are not
acceptable grounding points. The printer isn't an acceptable
grounding point either because it must be unplugged before you
perform this task.
If you don't have an anti-static wrist strap, discharge your body's
static electric charge by touching a grounded surface before you
handle any printer boards or components and before removing the
controller board cover. Also avoid walking around after grounding
yourself.
SIMMs are installed as follows:
1 Access the printer controller board.
Use the instructions in the “Removing the Controller Board” sec-
tion earlier in this chapter.
2 Position the controller board on a flat surface so the control-
ler board lies flat and the controller board handle hangs over
the edge of the flat surface.
3 Remove the SIMM from the anti-static bag.
