  • Page 112 Installation Attention It’s very important to protect the printer controller board and any associated circuit boards from electrostatic damage. Before performing this procedure, review the antistatic caution on page 112. In addition, always handle circuit boards by the edges only. If you are not to the point when you are able to print an advanced status page yet, skip to step 2.
  • Page 113 If you need to remove a DIMM before installing one, remove it as follows; otherwise skip to step 6. 5 " If all the DIMM connectors are filled and you want to install more memory, you have to exchange one or more DIMMs for DIMMs with a greater memory capacity.

  • Page 114: Emulations, Fonts, And Other Software

    MINOLTA-QMS recommends that you have at least 4 MB of memory above the base configuration and that you add at least 1 MB memory to each emulation installed. This ensures that the printer can run the emulation without slowing down performance.
  • Page 115 Downloading an Emulation via an Ethernet Interface 5 " Before you begin this procedure, your printer and PC (or UNIX workstation) must be connected to an Ethernet network running TCP/IP and have valid IP addresses. Turn on the printer, and wait for IDLE to display in the message window. If your PC is running Windows, change to DOS.
  • Page 116 CCITT Emulation A CCITT emulation (Group 4, monochrome only) is available through the MINOLTA-QMS ImageServer option, which image-enables your printer, allowing it to print many images at or near the rated engine speed and eliminating the need for a computer dedicated to rasterizing images. For complete information, refer to the documentation that comes with the ImageServer option.
  • Page 117 Downloading Disk Fonts via CrownAdmin We recommend that you use CrownAdmin to download PostScript fonts. Refer to the CrownAdmin online help for instructions. Downloading Disk Fonts via a Parallel Interface Turn on the printer, and wait for IDLE to display in the message window. Insert the font disk or CD-ROM in your PC, and change to that drive (for example, if you’re using the A drive, type a: ).
