7. Service Information
7.1 Whole Unit Replacement
When the unit is exchanged as a Whole Unit (WHOLE UNIT, W/O POWER SUPPLY UNIT:
0023U60701 , take the following procedures:

1. Remove the AC adapter from the printer returned from the user.
2. Install the removed AC adapter in the whole unit.
3. Perform destination setting. (Refer to "4. SERVICE MODE" for details.)
4. Power off the whole unit, and confirm that the printer ready for shipment (with the paper lifting plate
of the ASF in the upper position).


Caution:
For this printer model, as the Whole Unit for Japan has been designated as a service part, the product
name on the Whole Unit is a Japanese model name, PIXUS 450i. Consequently, when replacing the
Whole Unit in the regions other than Japan, replacement of the Output Tray Unit (QM2-0485-000), on
which "i450" is printed, is necessary.
