2.1 Installing an Network Interface Board in Your Printer
1.
Before installing the board, generate a printer status or test page, if possible.
This gives you detailed information on the identification and configuration of
your printer, and ensures the printer is set up and operating properly.
2.
Make sure the printer is operating properly, there is paper in the paper tray, and the
toner bottle is setting correctly.
3.
Turn off the printer and remove the power cord.
4.
Install the Network Interface Board in the option port, according to the printer
manufacturer’s instructions.
Note:
The Network Interface Board is designed to protect sensitive components from dam-
age due to electrostatic discharge during normal operation. When installing the card,
however, take proper static-control precautions to prevent damage to equipment.
