Antistatic Protection 109 Antistatic Protection Attention It’s very important to protect the printer controller board and any associated daughterboard or module from electrostatic damage while performing any task involving the controller board. If an antistatic wrist strap is provided in your printer option kit, attach one end of it to your wrist and the other end to any convenient electrical ground (for example, the bare metal chassis of equipment, as on the back of a computer, that is plugged in but turned off). Never attach the wrist strap to any piece of equipment with an electrical current present. Turn off all power switches first. Plastic, rubber, wood, painted metal surfaces, and telephones are not acceptable grounding points. The printer isn’t an acceptable grounding point either because it must be unplugged before you perform this task. If you don’t have an antistatic wrist strap, discharge your body’s static electric charge by touching a grounded surface before you handle any printer boards or components and before removing the controller board. Also avoid walking around after grounding yourself. Dual In-Line Memory Modules Dual in-line memory modules (or DIMMs) are compact circuit boards with surface-mount memory chips. Your magicolor 2200 printer comes with the following printer memory: „Model N—64 MB SDRAM „Models GN and EN—128 MB SDRAM „Model DP—256 MB SDRAM However, you can upgrade these models to a maximum of 384 MB of RAM through the installation of additional DIMMs. Additional memory must be 32, 64, or 128 MB, PC-100 Compliant SDRAM DIMMs. Downloaded From ManualsPrinter.com Manuals
Dual In-Line Memory Modules 110 Additional memory allows you to download more fonts and increase the printers buffer (area where data sent from the computer is stored while waiting to be printed). 5You may also need additional memory to print on some media sizes at resolutions above 600x600 dpi. How Much Memory Do You Need? The amount of RAM installed in your printer governs which resolutions can be used with each media size. If a certain resolution is chosen and the minimum amount of memory is not installed in the printer, the file is printed using the next lower resolution that can handle the job. For example, if you attempt to print a 4-color image at 1200x1200 dpi resolution on legal media, but the printer has only 64 MB of RAM instead of the required 128 MB minimum, the file prints at 600x600 dpi. The magicolor 2200 will print all print jobs at the highest resolution that the installed memory will support.
