Step 2 – Install the HP JetDirect Print Server Card in the Printer
Note: The HP JetDirect card contains electronic components that can be
damaged by static electricity through electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent
ESD discharge, maintain frequent contact with any bare sheet metal surface on
the printer. A grounding wrist strap (or similar device) is useful for this
purpose. Handle the card carefully at all times. Avoid touching electronic
components or circuit paths.
1. Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.
2. Unscrew and remove the plate on the left of the printer.
3. Insert the card. Align the card with the guide rails in the printer.
4. Press the card into the slot until the card is firmly seated.
5. Tighten each thumbscrew a little at a time, alternating between each side
until both screws are secure.
6. Connect the network cable to the card.
7. Connect the power cord and turn on the printer.
