Installing the HDD

Prepare a screwdriver when you install the HDD.

Caution:

Make sure you turn off the power, unplug the power cord, and check that all wiring has been disconnected. The cord may be damaged, resulting in electric shock or fire.

Important:
  • Install the designated HDD (model number: C12C934441). Operation cannot be guaranteed if other HDDs are installed.

  • Electrostatic discharge can damage printer parts. Make sure you discharge static electricity from your body by touching grounding yourself before installing the HDD.

  • Handle the HDD with care. Excessive force may damage the components.

  2. Disconnect all cables such as the power cord and USB cable.

  3. Loosen the four screws of the additional interface slot on the back of the printer.
