Extended Printer Diagnostics

Extended diagnostic tests are available. The maintenance manual provides the information needed to perform these additional tests.

Battery Replacement (200M Only)

One of the factory-installed options for the 200M is the Battery Backed-up 256 KB Non-volatile SRAM Memory. The battery used with this option is a 3 VDC lithium battery.

It is recommended that a qualified service technician replace this battery since it requires internal access to the electronics area of the printer. Further information regarding the replacement of this battery is contained in the Maintenance Manual, Vol. 1: General Maintenance.

CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
