Removal and Replacement Strategy This chapter documents removal and replacement of Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) only. Exchange assemblies should be sent to SMO for repair. Replacement is generally the reverse of removal. Occasionally, notes are included to provide direction for difficult or critical replacement procedures. WARNING!Unplug the power cord from the power outlet before attempting to service the printer. If this warning is not followed, severe injury may result. Never operate or service the printer with the protective cover removed from the Laser/Scanner Assembly. The reflected beam, although invisible, can damage your eyes. The sheet metal edges of this printer can be sharp! Exercise caution when working with the printer. CautionThe printer contains parts that are electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive. Always service printers at an ESD-protected workstation. To install a self-tapping screw, first turn it counter-clockwise to align it with the existing thread pattern, then carefully turn clockwise to tighten. Do not overtighten. If a self-tapping screw-hole becomes stripped, repair the screw-hole or replace the affected assembly. NoteAlways remove the toner cartridge before removing or replacing parts. 6 Removal and Replacement Removal and Replacement 6 - 3

Installing Memory Cards (DRAM) 1Unplug the power cord from the printer. You should not install a memory card while the printer is in SleepMode. 2Open the Printer Door, remove the toner cartridge, and close the Printer Door. Protect the toner cartridge from light while you are working on the printer. 3Remove any paper in the paper tray. Gently tip the printer onto its side so that the memory cover is on top as shown in Figure 3. 4Remove the Memory Expansion Cover by carefully pulling the tab out and away from the printer in a gentle rocking motion. 5Align the memory card with the corner notch so it is positioned as in Figure 4. Push it firmly into the printer. Replace the Memory Expansion Cover, set the printer upright, reinstall the toner cartridge, reinsert paper, and reconnect to the power source. Print a self-test page (see Chapter 3) to check that the printer recognizes the additional memory you have added. Your Total Memory in the “Printer Information” section will show the new MB total. 1 MByte card 2 MByte total 2 MByte card 3 MByte total 4 MByte card 5 MByte total 8 MByte card 9 MByte total 6 Removal and Replacement Removal and Replacement 6 - 5
