Printer does not recognize one or more output expander options as being installed

Service tip: If more than a single output expander option is installed, check each one to see if the printer recognizes any single option as being installed.

	FRU	Action
1	Output expander option	Make sure the output expander option is the only option that is not
		recognized by the base printer. If the output expander is the only
		option not recognized by the printer, continue with step 2. If not,

		interconnect card and cable connections.
2	Output expander assembly	Check the autoconnects for damage, especially the connector pins.

		bin autoconnect located on the top left rear of the printer. Go to
		“Autoconnect” on page 5-6. If the voltages are correct and the
		problem persists, replace the output expander option.
