Removing an interface card

Your printer comes with a Type B interface slot. Various optional interface cards are available to expand your printer's interface options.

Follow these steps to install an optional interface card.

Caution:

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

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

Remove the screws and the Type B interface card slot cover as shown below.

Warning:

Removing screws and covers that are not described in the following instructions will expose high voltage areas.

Note:

Keep the slot cover in a safe place. You will need to reattach it if you remove the interface card later.

Slide and push the interface card into the slot firmly, then fasten the screw as shown below.

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

To confirm that the option is installed correctly, print a status sheet. See Printing a Status Sheet.
