Installing the waste toner bottle
The waste toner bottle ➏ is also supplied. It must be installed inside the drum access door ➐ in the
left side of the printer. Open the drum access door and install it as shown.

Developer initialization
The printer is shipped from the factory with no toner supplied in its developer unit. When the
printer is first switched on after the toner container is installed in the manner above, there will be a
delay of several minutes before the printer gets ready to print a job.
This delay is necessary for the printer to fill the developer reservoir with a sufficient amount of
toner to continuously support a print job.
The period of time for this delay varies depending on model: approximately 4 minutes for model
FS-1750 (14-ppm); and approximately 5 minutes for model FS-3750 (18-ppm).
Since the automatic implementation of the developer initialization is done only once at first
switching power on, if a new developer is in stalled in the printer, the developer must be in itialized
manually using the service mode on the front panel. Refer to the section

Expanding memory
Expanded printer memory enables to print more complex pages, download more fonts, and define
more macros.
It begins by explaining how to remove the main circuit board from the printer, and explains how
to install a SIMM (single in-line memory module) on the main circuit board. The minimum
memory requirements for the printer with v arious options installed are listed in the table below.
Refer to this table for obtaining a rough approximation on how much memory is required for a
particular need.

Removing the main circuit board
The main circuit board of the printer is equipped with two sockets for memory expansion.
Expansion memory is available in the form of a SIMM.
Turn the printer’s power off. Unplug the printer’s power cable and
disconnect the printer from the computer or the network.

Caution - Before pulling the board out, clean an area on the table, etc., at
the back of the printer’s rear panel. Foreign objects, accidentally sticking to
the back of the main board, can cause serious damage to the printer.
Locate the sockets for memory expansion on the main board. These sockets have 72 pins and are

After installing SIMMs in the printer, test the prin ter to see if the installation has been successful.
To test the expansion memory, turn printer power on and print a status page.
If the installation has been successful, the Total memory (Memory Allocation) of the status page
will show the expanded memory size corresponding to the amount of memory added.
