Chapter 8. Installing Optional Printer Features
This chapter describes how to install and remove the following options:
v The DIMM, Resource Flash Memory Module, IBM AFP/IPDS Module, and
hard drive (see page 146)
v Network interface cards (see page 154)
v The 550-Sheet Tray (see page 159)
v The Envelope Feeder (see page 167)
v The Offset Output Bin (see page 169)
v The Duplex Unit (see page 173)
Important!
To verify that an option is installed correctly, print the configuration
page. See “Printing the Printer Configuration Page” on page 24. Also,
make sure you update your printer driver to indicate the new feature is
installed.
Handling Static Sensitive Devices
When you handle options and other computer components, take these
precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up
around you.
v Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters and memory-module
kits by the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry.
v When you are installing a new option, touch the static-protective package
containing the option to the mounting bracket on the controller card for at
least two seconds. This reduces static electricity from the package and from
your body.
v When possible, remove the option and install it directly in the controller
without setting the option down. When this is not possible, place the
static-protective package that the option came in on a smooth, level surface
and place the option on it.
v Do not place the option on the printer cover or other metal surface.
