Installing the fax card

CAUTION—SHOCK HAZARD:  To avoid the risk of electrical shock, if you are accessing the controller board or installing optional hardware or memory devices sometime after setting up the printer, then turn the printer off, and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet before continuing. If you have any other devices attached to the printer, then turn them off as well, and unplug any cables going into the printer.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY:  To reduce the risk of fire, use only a 26 AWG or larger telecommunications (RJ-11) cord when connecting this product to the public switched telephone network. For users in Australia, the cord must be approved by the Australian Communications and Media Authority.

  1. Turn off the printer, and then unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

  2. Using a flat‑head screwdriver, remove the controller board shield.

    Warning—Potential Damage:  Controller board electronic components are easily damaged by static electricity. Touch a metal surface on the printer before touching any controller board components or connectors.

  3. Remove the fax cover.

  4. If a fax bracket is installed on your printer, then remove it.

  5. Install the fax card to the bracket.

    Notes:

    • If the fax card came with a bracket, then use that bracket.
    • If the fax card does not have a bracket, then use the bracket that you removed in step 4.
  6. Install the fax card to the printer, and then connect the connector to the controller board.

  7. Attach the controller board shield, and then install the screws.

  8. Connect the power cord to the electrical outlet, and then turn on the printer.

    CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY:  To avoid the risk of fire or electrical shock, connect the power cord to an appropriately rated and properly grounded electrical outlet that is near the product and easily accessible.
