The Eltron Company P310 manual Chapter Replacement Procedures

CHAPTER 5

REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES

This chapter consists of part replacement procedures for those items either found or suspected of malfunctioning. These procedures cover the items checked during the troubleshooting presented in the previous chapter. However, this manual does not cover all components and only represents an attempt toward identifying a potential set of components. As a result, servicing personal may discover additional items that warrant procedures.

Eltron Card Printer Products encourages servicing personal to report these and any other problems in support of continuous product improvement, publication of Tech Notes, and revision of this manual. For servicing beyond the scope of this and the other P310 Printer publications, Eltron Card Printer Products offers factory repair and Technical Support assistance as options.

As with all well-designed products, most parts should remain operational well beyond a typical product life. Therefore, product abuse may cause most failures. In this regard, the operating environment most likely acts as the prime factor influencing card-image quality, with airborne particles the chief cause of problems.

Descriptions show how the various components fasten to the printer and the best sequence for their removal. This makes the procedures reversible, meaning installation of a new component typically occurs by reversing of the removal procedure.
