Removal and replacement strategy
This chapter documents the removal and replacement of field replaceable units (FRUs) only.
Reinstallation is generally the reverse of removal. Occasionally, notes are included to provide
directions for difficult or critical replacement procedures.
WARNING! Unplug the power cord from the power outlet (at the wall receptacle) before attempting to service
the product. If this warning is not followed, severe injury can result. Certain functional checks
during troubleshooting must be performed with power supplied to the product. However, the power
supply should be disconnected during removal.
The power cord must be unplugged from the wall receptacle. Unplugging the cord from the back
of the print unit does not prevent AC power from going to the scan unit. See “Back view” on
page 21.
CAUTION The product contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Always
perform service work at an ESD-protected workstation. If an ESD-protected workstation is not
available, discharge body static by grasping the print engine chassis before touching an ESD
sensitive component. Ground the print engine chassis before servicing the product.
