Precautions

The LN17 printer options are easy to install. Installing and

 

 

testing any one option is likely to take 5 to 15 minutes.

 

 

Before installing or removing any printer option, take the

 

 

precautionary steps outlined below.

 

 

 

 

 

POWER OFF THE PRINTER: The printer determines which

 

 

options are installed through a self-test. The self-test is run

 

 

when you power ON the printer. Therefore, for proper

 

Caution

operation, you must power OFF the printer before installing/

 

 

removing an option, then power it back ON after installing/

 

 

removing an option.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD: Never remove the printer

 

 

controller board while the printer is plugged in.

 

Caution

To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, always disconnect

 

the power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or

 

 

external printer option.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DISCHARGE STATIC ELECTRICITY: The controller board and

 

 

internal printer options (SIMMs, network interface cards, and

 

 

the hard drive) are sensitive to static electricity. Before

 

Caution

installing or removing an internal option, discharge static

 

 

electricity from your body by touching something metal, such

 

 

as the metal back plate on any device plugged into a

 

 

grounded power source. If you walk around before finishing

 

 

the installation, again discharge any static electricity.
