Service Manual Addendum PhaserTM 340 and PhaserTM 350 Color Printer This addendum contains information for servicing Phaser 340 Color Printers printers serial-numbered BCxxxxx and up and Phaser 350 Color Printers. July 1996 070-9100-85 Service Manual 1 Phaser 340 overview The Phaser 340 Color Printer is an Adobe PostScript Level 2 color, solid ink-jet printer with Tektronix color matching extensions (TekColor 3.0). The Phaser 340 is marketed in two variations: The Phaser 340 and the Phaser 340 Plus (also called Phaser 340 with Extended Features). Externally and mechanically, the Phaser 340 and Phaser 340 Plus are identical. The startup page indicates whether the printer is a "Plus" model. Additionally, the Macintosh printer driver indicates if the printer is a "Plus" model. Note Unless otherwise noted, descriptions and servicing are identical for the Phaser 340 and the Phaser 340 Plus. Early in 1996, Tektronix introduced a significantly redesigned Phaser 340 and Phaser 340 Plus, denoted by the serial numbers BCxxxxx, BDxxxxx, BExxxxx, B6Exxxx and B6Fxxxx. These printers are often referred to as Version 2 printers. Theses printer feature some new FRU components that are not compatible with older printers. These printers also have an updated front panel menu structure with new menu items. The Phaser 340 prints at an addressability of 300 dots per inch (dpi) and features 17 built-in fonts and 8 Mbytes of RAM, which can be upgraded to 12 Mbytes. The Phaser 340 Plus prints at an addressability of 600 x 300 dots-per-inch or 300 x 300 dpi, features 69 built-in fonts, and comes with 24 Mbytes of RAM. The Phaser 340 Plus is also capable of job pipelining; it can print one image and process the data for the next image at the same time. Both printers feature two available paper trays: A and A4, with an optional 500-sheet high-capacity Lower Paper Tray Assembly which gives the printer a dual-tray capability. (The Lower Paper Tray Assembly is sometimes referred to as the second feeder; it only supports paper printing.) The printers print images on A- and A4-size paper and transparency film with 5 mm (0.2 in.) margins; the bottom margin is 7 mm (0.3 in). Each can print up to a rate of four pages per minute; although the Phaser 340 Plus has greater image processing capabilities
