This section describes how to install an optional interface card into the Type B interface slot.

Installing an interface card

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 off the printer.

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

Remove all interface cables from the interface connectors.

Unpack the interface card and remove all protective materials.

Face the rear of the printer.

Remove the two screws that secure the interface slot cover and remove the cover.

Warning:

Make sure that you only remove the two screws that secure the interface slot cover. Removing other screws and covers will expose high voltage areas.

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

Slide the interface card into the grooves of the slot, as shown below. Push the card in firmly to lock it into place. Then secure the card with the two retaining screws.

Reconnect all interface cables.

Plug the printer's power cord into the printer and into an electrical outlet.

Turn on the printer.

To verify that the interface card is correctly installed, print a status sheet. See Printing a Status Sheet to print a status sheet.

If the installed interface is not shown on the status sheet, turn off the printer, unplug it, disconnect all interface cables, and review the steps above to make sure you installed the interface card correctly. If the installed interface still does not show up on the status sheet, contact your dealer or a qualified service representative for assistance.
