Important!
• The Network Card MAC address (network address) and serial numb er are marked on labe ls above the port on the Network Ca rd. These num­bers are required when making Network Card settings, so be sure to write t hem down somewhere befor e installing th e card.
Note
• If you are using the PagePro 4100E printer, install the optional Net­work Card following to the procedure described in this section. If you are using the PagePro 4100GN printer, you don’t need to install the Network Card, because the printer comes with a network interface device on its controller board. Skip to the next section.
1. Confirm that the printer is operating normally.
2. Power down the printer and unplug its power cord from the power outlet.
3. Install the Netwo rk Card into the inter face con nector of the printer controller board .
See the Quick Guide (Installing the Network Car d) that comes with the Network Card for full details about installation.
Important!
• Special care is required when handling the Network Card. The Net­work Card is designe d to protect components from electrostatic dis­charge during normal operation. Be sure to take proper electrostatic protection m ea sures whenever handli ng the Network Card.
