4. Repair Information

This chapter explains how to make adjustments to the printer and how to remove defective parts.

Note: Read the following before handling electronic parts. When working on the printer, always unplug the printer from the wall outlet. High voltage is present in the power supply as long as it is plugged into the wall outlet.

Handling ESD-Sensitive Parts

Many electronic products use parts that are known to be sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent damage to ESD-sensitive parts, follow the instructions below in addition to all the usual pre- cautions, such as turning off power before removing logic boards:

•Keep the ESD-sensitive part in its original shipping container (a special “ESD bag”) until you are ready to install the part into the printer.

•Make the least-possible movements with your body to prevent an increase of static electricity from clothing fibers, carpets, and furniture.

•Put the ESD wrist strap on your wrist. Connect the wrist band to the system ground point. This discharges any static electricity in your body to the printer.

•Hold the ESD-sensitive part by its edge connector shroud (cover); do not touch its pins. If you are removing a pluggable module, use the cor- rect tool.

•Do not place the ESD-sensitive part on the printer cover or on a metal table; if you need to put down the ESD-sensitive part for any reason, first put it into its special bag.

•Printer covers and metal tables are electrical grounds. They increase the risk of damage because they make a discharge path from your body through the ESD-sensitive part. (Large metal objects can be dis- charge paths without being grounded.)

•Prevent ESD-sensitive parts from being accidentally touched by other personnel. Install printer covers when you are not working on the printer, and do not put unprotected ESD-sensitive parts on a table.

•If possible, keep all ESD-sensitive parts in a grounded metal cabinet (case).

•Be extra careful in working with ESD-sensitive parts when cold weather heating is used because low humidity increases static electricity.
