Precautions to take when installing accessories
• Disconnect the power cord
Never remove the control board cover while the power is turned on.
To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the 
power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external 
accessories.
• Discharge static electricity
The control board and internal accessories (network interface card or 
memory module) are sensitive to static electricity. Before installing or 
removing any internal accessories, discharge static electricity from your 
body by touching something metal, such as the metal back plate on any 
device plugged into a grounded power source. If you walk around before 
finishing the installation, repeat this procedure to discharge any static 
electricity again.
Installing a memory module
Your machine has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM). Use this 
memory module slot to install additional memory.
When you are expanding the memory capacity, you can add a memory 
module to the vacant memory slot. Your machine has 128 MB memory, 
and it can be expanded to 256 MB.
Order information is provided for optional memory module. (See 
Accessories on page 8.1.)
1Turn the machine off and unplug all cables from the machine.
2Open the control board cover.
3Take out a new memory module from the plastic bag.
4Holding the memory module by the edges, align the memory 
module on the slot at about a 30-degree tilt. Make sure that the 
notches of the module and the grooves on the slot fit each other.
Note
The notches and grooves illustrated above may not match 
those on an actual memory module and its slot.

11 Glossary
BOOTP
It stands for Bootstrap Protocol, a network protocol used by a network 
client to obtain its IP address automatically. This is usually done in the 
bootstrap process of computers or operating systems running on them. 
The BOOTP servers assign the IP address from a pool of addresses to 
each client. 
Control Panel
A control panel is a flat area where control or monitoring instruments are 
displayed. They are typically found in top or front of the machine. 
Coverage
This is the printing term used for toner usage measurement on printing 
and generally used as 5% coverage. 5% coverage means that an A4 
sided paper has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original 
has complicated images or lots of text on it, the coverage will be over 5% 
and at the same time, toner usage will be as much as the coverage.
Default
The first set values.
DHCP
A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server 
networking protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration parameters 
specific to the DHCP client host requesting, generally, information 
required by the client host to participate on an IP network.
DIMM
Dual Inline Memory Module, a small circuit board that holds memory. 
DIMM stores all the data within the machine like printing data, received 
fax data, or scanned data.
DNS
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is a system that stores information 
associated with domain names in a distributed database on networks. 
DPI
This is the measurement of resolution which is used for printing or 
scanning. Generally, more dots per inch result in a higher resolution, 
more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size. 
Duplex
This is a mechanism which automatically flips over a sheet of paper so 
that the machine can print (or scan) on both sides of the paper. A printer 
equipped with a Duplex can print double-sided. 
Duty Cycle
Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer performance 
for a month. Generally the printer has the lifespan limitation such as 
pages per year. The lifespan means the average capacity of print-outs, 
usually within the warranty period. For example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 
pages per month assuming 20 working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages 
a day, which is not small amount.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area 
networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical layer, 
and frame formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data 
link layer of the OSI model. It has become the most widespread LAN 
technology in use presently.
Fuser Unit 
This is the part of a laser printer that melts the toner onto the print media. 
It consists of two hot rollers. After toner is transferred onto the paper, the 
fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure that the toner stays on the 
paper permanently, which is why paper is warm when it comes out of a 
laser printer.
Gateway
This is a connection between computer networks, or between a computer 
network and a telephone line. And it is very popular, as it is a computer 
or a network that allows access to another computer or network.
Grayscale
Shades of gray that represent light and dark portions of an image when 
color images are converted to grayscale; colors are represented by 
various shades of gray.
Halftone
This is an image type that simulates grayscale by varying the number of 
dots. Highly colored areas consist of a large number of dots, while lighter 
areas consist of a smaller number of dots.
Intranet
This is a private network that uses Internet Protocols, network 
connectivity, and possibly the public telecommunication system to 
securely share part of an organizations information or operations with its 
employees. Sometimes the term refers only to the most visible service, 
the internal website.
IP address
An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a unique number that 
devices use in order to identify and communicate with each other on a 
network utilizing the Internet Protocol standard (IP).
IPM
The Images Per Minute.

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that indicates the 
status of a machine. 
Print Media
Media such as papers, envelopes, labels, and transparencies which can 
be used on a printer, a scanner, a fax or, a copier. 
OPC Drum
A mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam 
emitted from a laser printer, and it is usually green or gray-colored and 
cylinder-shaped. An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn away by its 
usage of the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it  
becomes scratched from grit in paper.
PDF
Portable Document Format (PDF) is a proprietary file format developed 
by Adobe Systems for representing two-dimensional documents in a 
device-independent and resolution-independent format.
PostScript
PostScript (PS) is a page description language and programming 
language used primarily in the electronic and desktop publishing areas, 
and that is run in an interpreter to generate an image.
PPM
Pages Per Minute. PPM shows the printers speed, how many pages a 
printer can actually print per minute.
PRN file
An interface for a device driver, this allows software to interact with the 
device driver using standard input/output system calls, which simplifies 
many tasks. 
Protocol
This is a convention or standard that controls or enables the connection, 
communication, and data transfer between two computing endpoints.
PS
See PostScript.
Resolution
The sharpness of an image, measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher

It is the set of communications protocols that implement the protocol 
stack on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.
toner cartridge
It is a kind of bottle within a machine like a printer which contains toner. 
Toner is a powder used in laser printers and photocopiers which forms the 
text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be melted by the heat of 
the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.
URL
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is the global address of documents and 
resources on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates what 
protocol to use, the second part specifies the IP address or the domain 
name where the resource is located.
