3. Place the cover on the paper tray.

4. Pull up the output tray extension on the front of the printer.

Note:

Before printing, make sure the Paper Size setting in your printer driver

matches the paper you loaded.

Using the Optional 500-Sheet Lower

Cassette Unit

The optional 500-sheet lower cassette unit (C812881 for

letter size paper, C812871 for A4 size paper) gives you a

second paper source in addition to the standard paper tray.

Installing the Unit

1. Turn off the printer.

2. Unplug the printer’s power cord from the electrical outlet

and from the printer.

3. Disconnect all interface cables from the interface

connectors.

4. Make sure the printer and cassette are facing the same way.

Lift the printer and align the pins on the cassette with the

holes on the bottom of the printer. Then lower the printer

until it rests securely on the Lower Cassette Unit.

5. Reconnect any interface cables you removed.

6. Make sure the printer’s power switch is turned off, then

plug the power cord into the printer and into an electrical

outlet.

7. Turn on the printer.

Be sure to select the paper source in your application program.

Since the selection method varies from application to

application, see your software documentation for more

information.

Loading Paper

1. Pull out the paper tray from the paper cassette.

2. Press down the plate in the paper tray until it locks into

position.

3. Fan a stack of paper and tap it on a flat surface to even the

edges. Insert the paper printable side up into the tray,

making sure the paper fits under the tab as shown.

EPSON EPL-5700i

4 - EPSON EPL-5700i 9/99

4. Insert the paper tray in the paper cassette.

Using the Optional Face-up Tray

The printer normally outputs paper face down on top of the

printer. If you want face-up output, you can install the

optional face-up tray (C812861). This tray gives you

immediate viewing of your printed output and is

recommended for printing on media such as labels and

transparencies that require a straight-through paper path.

1. Turn off the printer.

2. Install the face-up tray by inserting the mounting pins into

the corresponding holes, one at a time. Do not force both

sides in at once.

The printer is factory set for face-down output. To switch the

paper path from face-down to face-up, use the selector located

on the right side of the printer near the back.

Using an Optional Memory Module

By installing a Single In-line Memory Module (SIMM), you

can increase printer memory up to 13MB. You may want to

add additional memory if you are having difficulty printing

complex graphics or if you regularly use numerous

downloaded fonts.

Note:

The maximum amount of memory is 13MB. Even if a 16MB SIMM is

installed, only 13MB is accessible.

You can purchase SIMMs from many vendors. Be sure that

the SIMM you purchase meets the following requirements:

❏72-pin, EDO or FPM type

❏Capacity of 4, 8, or 16MB

❏Access speed of 60 ns (nanoseconds) or less

❏Dimensions within 4.25 inches (108 mm) ×1.5 inches

(38 mm), with a thickness of 0.4 inch (10 mm)

Follow these steps to install a memory module:

1. Turn off the printer.

Warning:

To avoid electrical shock, do not attempt to install a SIMM unless

the printer is turned off.

2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

3. Turn the printer so that its right side faces you.

4. Open the printer cover by pressing the latch on the left side

of the printer.

9/99 EPSON EPL-5700i - 5

5. Remove the printer’s side cover by lifting the clip and

sliding the side cover backward. Then lift the side cover

away from the printer.

6. Loosen the retaining screws securing the shield cover, and

remove the cover.

Caution:

Before you install the module, be sure to discharge any static

electricity by touching the printer’s shield cover while it’s still

attached to the printer (or touch any other part of the shield plate).

Otherwise, you may damage static-sensitive components.

7. Insert the SIMM module into the RAM slot at an angle,

making sure the pin numbers (either 1 or 72) of the slot and

the SIMM match.

8. Press the module forward until it clicks into place at a right

angle to the board. Do not apply too much force.

9. Replace the shield cover and tighten its screws.

10. Replace the printer’s side cover by inserting the side cover’s

hooks into the case’s slots and sliding the side cover

forward.

11. Gently close the printer cover.

12. Plug the power cord back in and turn on the printer.

If an incorrect amount of memory is shown on the status

sheet, turn off the printer and review the steps above to make

sure you correctly installed the SIMM. If the amount of

memory is still incorrect, contact your dealer or a qualified

service person for assistance.

Note:

The maximum amount of memory is 13MB. Even if a 16MB SIMM is

installed, only 13MB is accessible.

Replacing Consumable Products

Your printer uses two consumable components, which are

listed below along with their approximate life expectancies.

❏Developer cartridge (S050010)

Up to 6,000 pages, depending on the complexity of your

print jobs

❏Photoconductor unit (S051055)

Up to 20,000 pages, depending on the complexity of your

print jobs

Replace the developer cartridge if you notice a decline in print

quality. Replace the photoconductor unit only if print quality

problems remain after replacing the developer cartridge.

Replacing the Developer Cartridge

Follow these steps to replace the developer cartridge.

1. Make sure the printer is turned off.

2. Open the printer cover by pressing the latch on the left side

of the printer and lifting the cover up all the way.

Caution:

You must completely open the printer cover when replacing the

developer cartridge; otherwise, you may damage the printer.

Warning:

Opening the printer cover exposes the fuser, which is marked

“CAUTION Hot Surface Avoid Contact.” Be careful not to touch the

fuser. If the printer has been in use, the fuser may be very hot.

3. Hold the cartridge by the handle and pull it straight up and

out of the printer.

Caution:

When removing the developer

cartridge, never touch the developing

roller under the flap; otherwise, the

print quality may be impaired.

4. Dispose of the used developer cartridge properly.

Caution:

Do not turn the developer cartridge upside down or tilt it from side to

side.

5. Remove the new developer cartridge from its bag. While

holding the cartridge horizontally, gently shake it a few

times from side to side and then from front to back to

distribute the toner evenly.

6. Remove the protective tape seal from the cover of the

developer cartridge.

Caution:

Never touch the developing roller under

the flap. Otherwise, the print quality may

be impaired.

7. Hold the cartridge by its handle and lower it into the

printer, making sure that the pins on each side of the

cartridge fit into the grooves inside the printer. Slide the

cartridge gently into the opening until it locks into place.

8. Gently press down on the printer cover until it clicks shut.

9. After turning on the printer, access the printer settings

dialog box in the printer driver, and click the Toner Level

Clear button. The Toner level clear dialog box is displayed.

10. Click OK to reset the toner level counter.

Whenever you replace the developer cartridge, you should

clean the paper roller as described in “Cleaning the Inside of

the Printer” on page 11.

Replacing the Photoconductor Unit

1. Make sure the printer is turned off.

2. Open the printer cover by pressing the latch on the left side

of the printer and lifting the cover up all the way.

Caution:

You must completely open the printer cover to replace the

photoconductor unit; otherwise, you may damage the printer.

3. Remove the developer cartridge (see the previous section for

instructions).

Caution:

Do not turn the developer cartridge upside down or tilt it from side to

side.

Warning:

Opening the printer cover exposes the fuser, which is marked

“CAUTION Hot Surface Avoid Contact.” Be careful not to touch the

fuser. If the printer has been in use, the fuser may be very hot.
