Chapter 7. Installing Printer Options
This chapter describes how to install and remove the following options:
The SIMM and hard drive (see page 128)
The Network Interface Card (see page 135)
The duplex unit (see page 140)
The 500-sheet paper tray (see page 144)
The 500-sheet offset paper output bin option (see page 161)
The 10-bin mailbox (see page 167)
The envelope feeder (see page 174)
Important
To verify that an option is installed correctly, print the configuration page. See
“Printing the Printer Configuration Page” on page 13. Also, make sure you update
your printer driver to indicate the new feature is installed.
Handling Static Sensitive Devices
When you handle options and other computer components, take these precautions:
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters and memory-module kits by
the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry.
When you are installing a new option, touch the static-protective package
containing the option to the mounting bracket on the controller card for at least two
seconds. This reduces static electricity from the package and from your body.
When possible, remove the option and install it directly in the controller without
setting the option down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective
package that the option came in on a smooth, level surface and place the option
on it.
Do not place the option on the printer cover or other metal surface.
