To replace a component and to test whether the problem is resolved:
1 Replace the aected component.
Warning—Potential Damage: Do not perform a Power-On Reset (POR) until the problem is resolved. If a
POR is performed at this point, then the replacement part can no longer be used in another printer and
must be returned to the manufacturer.
2 Enter the Diagnostics Menu. The Diagnostics Menu allows you to temporarily use the replacement part.
Warning—Potential Damage: Some printers will perform a POR automatically if the Diagnostics Menu is
not opened within
five
seconds. If a POR is performed at this point, then the replacement part can no
longer be used in another printer and must be returned to the manufacturer.
3 Use the Diagnostics Menu to test the replacement part. Do a feed test to check if the problem is resolved.
• If the problem is not resolved—Turn o the printer, and then reinstall the old part.
• If the problem is resolved—Perform a POR.
• If NVRAM error occurs during the replacement, go to “NVRAM mismatch failure service check” on
page 160

Restore Tool, then contact your next level of support.
Note: The software bundle contains the latest version of the firmware, applications, and software licenses
