Printer Components

Printer Components

The components inside your printer are color-coded. The touch points you will need to handle are colored gold inside the printers and are highlighted in gold in the illustrations in this guide.
The components inside the media compartment of a standard printer are shown here.
Depending on the printer model and the installed options, your printer may look slightly different. The components that are labeled are mentioned in procedures throughout this guide.
