Follow these steps to install the optional 550-Sheet Universal Paper Cassette Unit.

Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord and interface cable.

Caution:
Make sure to unplug the power cord from the printer to prevent getting an electrical shock.

Place the printer onto the 550-Sheet Universal Paper Cassette Unit. Align each of the printer's corners with those of the unit, then lower the printer until it rests securely on the unit.

Note:
  • The printer should be carried by at least two people, holding the printer with their hands in the indicated positions.
  • When you install two optional paper cassette units, put one unit upon the other unit in order, then put the printer on top of them.

Pull out the MP tray and lower cassette from the printer, and then pull out the optional lower cassette from the unit. Then, secure the printer to the unit with the four fittings that are provided. Install two of the four fittings on both sides of the inside of the printer.

Remove the protective materials from the cassette and load the paper.

Reconnect the interface cable and power cord, then turn the printer on.
