Epson L-750 A-6Appendix, Installing the board

The Interface Boards

Installing the board

There are two basic types of interface board designs-the frame ground (FG) wire is attached for one type and not attached for the other. This difference does not affect the operation of the interface in any way.

1.If the interface board comes with an FG (frame ground) wire that is not already attached to the board, attach the wire as shown below on the left.

FG wire not attached

2.Carefully place the interface board next to the printer as shown below. Use the CG screw to connect the round end of the FG wire to the main board.
