Preface - What's New in the Model 003 This Maintenance Information Manual is a comprehensive reference for the IBM 4247 Printer, Models A00, 001, 002, and the new 003. The Model 003 is very similar in function to its predecessors, particularly the Model 001, but it is different in several important ways: v The Model 003 has a new Attachment Card Port which enables one to quickly change between hardware configurations without any disassembly; this includes serial, twinax, coax, and Ethernet LAN cards. The installation of the attachment cards is now part of the customer setup during the initial printer installation. There are also new menus and display messages to cover these additional attachments. v The transfer of Microcode Modules is no longer necessary because the modules have been replaced with flash memory. This memory needs to be reflashed only when one is changing to or from a coax configuration, or when upgrading for a customer problem. v The logic board has been reconfigured to facilitate the new attachment card hardware and the flash memory modules. v The power supply is now auto-ranging, capable of supporting any input voltage from 100 V to 240 V. All of the Model 003 printers have identical labels displaying all of the agency certifications. There are also several other minor differences in the Model 003 which include: new power on display messages, new test and diagnostics tests, and new error display messages. Other new features or changes will be noted in the relevant sections. © Copyright IBM Corp. 1995, 2001 19
