Handling Static-Sensitive Devices Some of your options can be damaged by static discharge. To prevent this damage, the options are wrapped in anti-static bags. Certain precautions must be taken before removing an option from its bag. 1 Hold the option (still wrapped in its anti-static bag) in one hand and touch a metal part of your system unit with the other hand. Internal Option Installation 3-3 2 Carefully remove the option from its anti-static bag. • Hold option adapters by the edges only. Avoid touching the components or connections. • Hold diskette drives and fixed disk drives by· their metal frames. • Hold modules by the ends. Avoid touching the pins. 3-4 Internal Option InstaUation 3 When inserting an option adapter into the system board, hold the adapter by its top edge or upper corners. Starting Your Installation The order that options appear in this section is the suggested order for installation. Refer to the table of contents for this section to find the starting page number for your option installation instructions. If your system unit's cover has not been removed start with "Section 2, Cover Removal" . Note: Factory-installed adapters must remain in their assigned expansion slots, unless noted otherwise.

Connecting your printer to Vac power before setting it to the correct voltage range will damage your printer. Your printer was set at the factory for the standard U.S. voltage range. You must verify this by looking into the window next to the power cord connector on the back of the printer. You will see the number 120. If you have other than standard U.S. voltage, or need help checking your printer voltage setting, continue with "Voltage Selection" on the next page. If you have standard U.S. voltage go to step 18. Window IBM Color Printer 5-47 Voltage Selection Follow these steps to check or set the printer voltage setting. 8 Find the correct setting for the voltage range available to you. If you need assistance, contact your place of purchase.

This number is the present voltage setting of your printer. 10 If your printer is not set correctly, continue with these steps. If you need help with the following steps, contact your place of purchase. 11 Turn your printer's power off, and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and from the printer. 5-48 IBM Color Printer ~ 12 Open the window by sliding it to the left. 13 Pull on the Fuse Pull tab to pivot the fuse out, then remove the fuse from the printer. 14 Using a needle-nose pliers or similar tool, pull the voltage selection card straight out of the printer. 15 Arrange the voltage selection card so that the setting number you want is right-side up and facing you.

Single sheets can be from 178 mm (7 in.) to 305 mm (12 in.) wide and from 216 mm (8.5 in.) to 432 mm (17 in.) long. The forms can range in widths from 89 mm (3.5 in.) to 390 mm (15.75 in.) including perforations. The figure below shows forms being loaded from the front of your printer. Rear and bottom loading slots are shown at the end of this section. Single sheets can be loaded only at the front loading slot. The following two sections describe how to use either type of paper. Each section is complete and independent of the other. To use continuous paper or forms, see "Continuous Paper and Forms Operation" on the next page. To use single sheets, see "Single Sheet Operation" later in this option. Note: Your printer is designed to operate with the access cover closed. Operating your printer with the access cover open may cause the paper or forms to jam in your printer. / lr--_ \ """ L I Front Loading IBM Color Printer 5-57 Continuous Paper and Forms Operation Note: To use single sheets, see "Single Sheet Operation" later in this option. Continuous Paper or Forms Installation 1 Place a supply of continuous paper or forms close to the front loading slot. Note: The front loading slot is easiest to use when first learning to use the printer. If you choose to use the rear or bottom loading slot, place a supply of forms close to the loading slot you wish to use. 2 Turn your printer's power off.
