This document describes the disassembly of the Oki Data C9600 / C9800 series of
printers. It is to be used during Oki Data Service Training. It is not designed to be a
self-directed course, as Oki Data Trainers will provide additional information as required
during the course. We are not responsible for typographical errors nor or we responsible
for manufacturing changes that are considered part of a products life cycle.
This document is being provided in conjunction with an Oki Data sponsored and led
course. Be aware that the machine you are working with may have already been
disassembled, resulting in parts and / or screws being incorrectly replaced.
You are responsible for your own personal safety as you work through this course. You
are expected to know how to safely operate, disassemble, and repair machines of this
type. Oki Data is providing disassembly, troubleshooting, repair and reassembly
instructions specific to this series of printers. Oki Data assumes that each student has
already demonstrated their knowledge of basic electronics, troubleshooting, disassembly
and reassembly of this type of equipment.
Important Safety Notes:
•This product generates potentially lethal voltages. While Oki Data has made
every attempt to insure safe operation and voltage interruption by installing safety
circuits, it is possible to by-pass these safety circuits. Oki Data will not be
responsible for the safety of any attendee who knowingly by-passes any of these
safety devices.
•These printers are very heavy. The C9000 series product weighs approximately
190 pounds. Safe lifting techniques are required and Oki Data assumes that the
attendee is versed in established safe lifting techniques.
•These printers contain large amounts of metal that may have sharp edges or
burrs on edges. Oki Data assumes no liability for carelessness that results in
injuries to attendees. In short – Be Aware – Be Careful - Don’t Fool Around!
•If you are unsure of something – ask the Oki Data Trainer before continuing.
•Follow the disassembly instructions as they are written to insure your safety as
well as your successful disassembly/reassembly of the printer(s) you’ll be
working with.

Course Instructions:
1. The C9000 series weighs almost 190 pounds, so use caution and
common sense when lifting, moving, or placing it on a surface.
2. Follow the procedures as they are written.
3. If you encounter any problems, notify the instructor.
4. When a procedure ends at a “Stop And Check” notify the instructor so
he can check your work.
5. NOTE: Aluminum screws go into metal; Black screws go into plastic.
6. Use Electrostatic Discharge precautions when handling the electronics
portions of the printers.
7. Pay very close attention to the wiring harnesses and how they are routed.
This will save time when you reassemble your unit!
8. Watch for sharp edges and burrs on the metal covers and support
brackets. This machine contains a lot of metal – Be careful!
9. Store the removed screws with the appropriate assembly they secure.
10.Notify the instructor if you have any left over parts/screws once you’ve
completed the re-assembly. This is IMPORTANT since these are training
machines and will be used for additional training classes.
11.Take your time – There’s No Prize For First Place!
12.We do not “booby trap” machines prior to disassembly or re-assembly.
We may introduce problems after your unit is reassembled and tested:
This is the best way to learn troubleshooting techniques.
13.Learn as much as you can - Enjoy the class – Ask questions
14.Remember; It’s Your Course!
15.When completing the course critique, be honest – Constructive Criticism is
always welcome and it helps us to improve this course.
