Serial Number Revision Levels
Microline 390/391
A
Rev A units are original production units. An interconnect module connects the power supply board to the
main control board.
B
Rev B units are retrofitted to include a modified interconnect module, which prevents corrosion.
C
These units have a cable connection between the power supply board and the main control board. The
cable connection wire replaces the interconnect module.
Microline 390/391-Plus
Revision levels do NOT apply to the "Plus" printers.
