Adding extended features to a Phaser® 340 — Upgrade Kit Z340FX

Important! About the printer’s IP address (Z340FX Option 1 only)

Upgrading the printer’s PostScript ROM will erase the printer’s IP address from
the printer’s non-volatile memory. Therefore you should print the printer’s
configuration page, which lists the printer’s IP address, before upgrading the
printer.

Note the IP address on the print and save the print for later reference.

Static electricity precautions

Leave the printer plugged into its power outlet; this preserves a
ground path for static discharges.

Touch the printer's bare metal frame often to discharge static
electricity from your body.

Handle the circuit board(s) by their edges only.

Do not lay the board(s) on a metal surface.

Make the least possible movements to avoid generating static
electricity.

Avoid wearing wool, nylon or polyester clothing; they generate static
electricity.

Upgrading the printer

Removing the main board

Caution

Do not tilt the printer.

If you must move the printer to access the

rear of the printer to install the upgrade, be careful not to tip or tilt
the printer. Hot, liquid ink in the printer could spill and damage
the printer. Once the printer is turned off, it takes 30 minutes for
the ink to cool to its solid state. Wait and allow the ink to cool.

1.

Power down the printer. Leave the power cord plugged in to provide
a ground path for static discharges. Remove the interface cables.

2.

Loosen the two rear panel securing screws.
