This kit includes all the hardware necessary to convert a magicolor 6100 DeskLaser to a magicolor 6100 Crown Print System. MINOLTA-QMS Crown is a proprietary, multitasking printer operating system, which allows MINOLTA-QMS to adapt advanced printer software to the evolving printing needs of users in many different environments.
Converting your magicolor 6100 DeskLaser printer to a magicolor 6100 Crown Print System involves two steps: 1 Replacing the controller board. 2 Applying the new product labels. ▲ Caution: It’s very important to protect the printer controller board from electrostatic damage while performing this conversion. If you have an anti-static wrist strap, attach one end of it to your wrist and the other end to any convenient electrical ground.
2 Remove the controller board from the printer. Loosen two screws, one on each end of the I/O connector panel, and, using the tab on the lower side of the connector panel, pull the controller board from the printer. 3 Position the controller board on a flat surface so the controller board lies flat and the I/O connector panel is facing you. 4 Remove the new controller board from its packaging. 5 Carefully remove the RAM DIMMs from the old controller board.
7 Insert each DIMM straight down into the DIMM connector until the latches snap into the locked position. When seated, the DIMM stands upright, firmly in place. If you cannot snap the DIMM into place, do not force it. Reposition it, making sure that the bottom of the DIMM is seated completely in the connector. 8 Repeat steps 6–7 for each additional DIMM that you install. 9 If you purchased any other options, such as an internal hard disk or Time-of-Day Clock, install them now.
13 Check the startup page. After the printer warms up, a startup page similar to the one shown below prints. The startup page indicates that the printer has successfully been converted from a magicolor 6100 DeskLaser to a magicolor 6100 Crown Print System. Verify that the memory and options that were installed are correctly identified on the startup page.
Remove existing labels and apply the magicolor 6100 logo and the dataplate label to the printer as shown in the following diagram:
! """ If you have any questions or problems during the conversion, refer to appendix A, “Customer Support,” in your new magicolor 6100 Print System documentation to find out how to contact MINOLTA-QMS. ! " # If you haven’t already done so, install the magicolor 6100 Print System printer driver. The printer driver is located on the magicolor 6100 Software Utilities CD-ROM.
