Tools you will need

To install or service the E-43A, you will need the following tools and parts:
• ESD wrist grounding strap and antistatic mat
• Flathead screwdriver
• #0, #1, and #2 Phillips head screwdrivers
• Needlenose pliers
• E-43A documentation, including the customer media pack and any related
service bulletins
Avoid touching magnetic tools to storage media such as hard disk drives. Contact between
magnetic tools and magnetic storage media may result in data corruption.

Precautions

This section includes information about how to safely operate and service the E-43A and how
to avoid damage to E-43A components.
Report shipping damage
If there is evidence of shipping damage, save the shipping boxes and damaged parts. Call the
shipper immediately to file a claim and notify your authorized service/support center.
Do not change an existing network
The E-43A is probably connected to an existing Local Area Network (LAN) based on
Ethernet hardware. The network is the link between the customer's computer, existing laser
printers, and other prepress equipment. Never disturb the LAN by breaking or making a
network connection, altering termination, installing or removing networking hardware or
software, or shutting down networked devices without the knowledge and express permission
of the site administrator.
Do not assign an IP address to the E-43A
Only the site administrator should assign an IP address to a network device, including the
E-43A. If you enter an incorrect IP address for the E-43A, errors may occur on connected
devices.
Handling boards
When handling a printed circuit board, do not bend it. Hold it by opposing edges, rather
than by the corners.
Handling the hard disk drive
To ensure that you do not damage the hard disk drive, do the following:
• Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions.
• Keep magnets and magnetic-sensitive objects away from the hard disk drive.
