Major Part Replacements

Fuse replacement

Follow the steps below to replace a blown fuse:

1. Turn the printer off.

2. Disconnect the external power supply unit.

3. Perform Main Assembly 6 and 7 in Chapter 5 in reverse.

4. Replace the blown fuse (125 V, 3.15 AT).

5. Perform steps (1) through (3) in reverse.

If the printer still does not operate properly, or if the fuse blows again, use the flowchart in
Chapter 4 to check for other problems.
