Adjustment Adjustment Steps 159
5.2 Adjustment Steps
This section describes the detailed steps for performing the adjustment
procedures listed in Table 5-2.
5.2.1 Parameter Backup
The Main Board contains NVRAM (EEPROM) which is used to store the
parameter information and firmware commands that control the printer. For
all corresponding printer parts, the individual and unique adjustment
information and part codes are stored here, which allows the Main Board and
Printer Mechanism to work together smoothly. This information includes
adjustment parameters and must be kept up to date for the printer to work
properly.
Therefore, to replace the Main Board, you need to
back up the parameters as described in the following pages
replace the C299 Main board as described in Chapter 4
download the parameters as described in the following pages
upload the firmware as described on page 162
adjust the sensors as described on page 169.
