Installing the Network Interface Card
2-2 ❖DocuPrint 4512/4512N Network Interface Card User Guide
Preparing the
Printer
If the printer can generate a test or status page, you should
generate one before you begin.
1. Make sure that the printer is operating properly. Check to
see that paper is in the paper tray and toner cartridge is
full. If the printer handles multiple printer languages,
make sure it is set up for automatic emulation sensing or
PCL or ASCII mode.
2. Turn off the printer and remove the power cord.
3. Install the Network Interface Card in the option port,
according to the printer manufacturer instructions.
Note
Handling Precautions for Static Sensitive Devices:
The Network Interface Card is designed to protect sensitive
components from damage due to electrostatic discharge
(ESD) during normal operation. When performing installation
procedures, however, take proper static control precautions to
prevent damage to equipment.
