The optional Hard Disk Drive (C82377) allows you to expand the printer's receive buffer when the Ethernet interface is used, and gives you additional memory for graphics and faster multi-page, multi-output sorting.

When the optional Adobe PostScript 3 ROM module is also installed, downloaded PostScript 3 fonts require 1 GB of free hard disk space on the optional Hard Disk Drive.

Installing the Hard Disk Drive

Follow these steps to install the optional Hard Disk Drive:

Caution:

Before you install the Hard Disk Drive, be sure to discharge any static electricity by touching a grounded piece of metal. Otherwise, you may damage static-sensitive components.

Be careful when working inside the printer as some components are sharp and may cause injury.

Turn off the printer.

Unplug the printer's power cord from the electrical outlet.

Remove all interface cables from the interface connectors.

Remove the screws and the circuit board cover on the back of the printer.

Identify the Hard Disk Drive socket. It's relative position is shown below.

Remove the Hard Disk Drive from its package.

Hold the Hard Disk Drive such that its electrical connector is on the same end as the Hard Disk Drive socket, then press the Hard Disk Drive down until the socket and connector are firmly connected.

Secure the Hard Disk Drive by fastening it with the provided screws.

Caution:

You should not remove any modules from the circuit board. Otherwise, the printer will not work.

Replace the circuit board cover and fasten the screws.

Reconnect all interface cables.
