6-2 Removing and Replacing Parts
Removal and Replacement Strategy
This chapter describes the complete disassembly of the printer. In
every instance, tasks that must be performed before beginning the
procedure are listed first. Remove the assemblies in the order listed
to prevent damage during re-assembly.
To ensure optimum print quality, the printer will prompt to have routine
maintenance performed every 200,000 pages. When the message
PERFORM PRINTER MAINTENANCE
appears on the Control Panel, the
Printer Maintenance Kit must be installed. See page 4-5.
Servicing the printer involves replacing printed circuit and
electro-mechanical assemblies. Do not repair component failures
within these assemblies. In all instances, replace the failed assembly.
The replacement procedure is the reverse of the removal procedure,
except where specific instructions are provided.
WARNING! Some sheet metal edges, particularly around the formatter cage, are
sharp. Be careful when working in these areas to avoid cutting yourself.
CAUTION The printer contains parts that are sensitive to
Electrostatic-Static Discharge (ESD). Always observe
proper ESD procedures when servicing the printer. The
ESD symbol appears in this chapter when the parts
being serviced are especially susceptible to ESD
damage.
It is usually best to remove and replace the covers in the order shown.
Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord and any cables.
