Installing a SIMM Board
CAUTION
SIMM boards and your printer formatter
board can be damaged by small amounts
of static electricity. When handling a
SIMM or other board, wear an antistatic
wrist strap connected to the metal frame
of the printer (or to your antistatic
system). During installation, to prevent
generation of static electricity, avoid
moving about the work area.
To avoid damaging the parts, follow these
steps:
1 In this order, switch the printer power
OFF, unplug the power cord, and
disconnect any attached cables.
2 Loosen (but do not remove) the two
captive screws. If you are not wearing
an antistatic wrist strap, touch the
printer’s bare metal plate.
3 Grasp the screws and pull the printer
controller board out of the printer. Do
not touch any component on the
board. Place the board on a flat,
nonconductive surface. (For ease of
replacement, note how the board fits
into slots in the printer.)
