Uploading/Downloading EEPROM data

When the controller printed circuit board is replaced, the contents of the old EEPROM shall be
copied to the new EEPROM on the new board to preserve customer settings. For the purpose,
use the EEPROM operation on the Option of the Maintenance Utility. To copy follow the steps
below.
(1) Be sure to confirm that the printer and the PC are connected with a centronics I/F cable. Then
execute the Maintenance Utility. (Note: Printer driver shall be deinstalled.)
(2) Select the Option on the Maintenance Utility.
(3) Click the "UPLOAD EEPROM" button on the "EEPROM Operations".
(4) The contents of the EEPROM data is displayed on the "DIALOG" of the Maintenance Utility.
The contents of the old EEPROM is now copied into the memory of the PC.
(5) Replace the controller P.C.B. with a new one while it displays the above "DIALOG".
(6) After the replacement, click "Download EEPROM" on the "EEPROM Operations". EEPROM
upload has been completed.
In case of troubles such as centronics I/F failure, etc. EEPROM data may not be uploaded
properly. In such case, it is necessary to adjust the following settings manually after the
replacement using the Maintenance Utility.
• LED driver time (See 4.2.1)
• Factory setting (ODA/OEL/INT-A/INT-L)
The maintenance utility is designed to be used only by field engineer and it should not be released
to the end-users.
