Overview
Overview
The Fiery X3eTY2 65C-KM adds computer connectivity and highly efficient PostScript
printing capacity to the bizhub PRO C6500 copier. Generally, the Fiery X3eTY2 65CKM does not require regular maintenance. The Fiery X3eTY2 65C-KM is shipped with
all necessary software already installed.
Use the procedures in this guide to inspect, remove, reseat, or replace major hardware
components and to reinstall system software. Replacement parts for the
Fiery X3eTY2 65C-KM are available from your authorized service support center.
You must reinstall system software if you replace the hard disk drive (HDD) or receive a
more recent version of the system software. You may also reinstall system software as a
way to troubleshoot the system.
N OTE : The term Fiery X3eTY2 is used in this guide to refer to the
Fiery X3eTY2 65C-KM. The term copier is used to refer to the bizhub PRO C6500.

Precautions
Always observe the following general precautions when servicing the Fiery X3eTY2
assembly:
1.
The Fiery X3eTY2 is probably connected to an existing Local Area Network (LAN)
based on Ethernet hardware. The network is the link between the customers computer,
existing laser printers, and other prepress equipment. Never disturb the LAN by breaking
or making a network connection, altering termination, installing or removing
networking hardware or software, or shutting down networked devices without the
knowledge and express permission of the site administrator.
3.
Only the site administrator should assign an IP address on a network device. Entering an
incorrect IP address to the Fiery X3eTY2 can cause unpredictable errors on any or all
devices.
Precautions
4.
Follow standard ESD (electrostatic discharge) precautions while working on the internal
components of the print engine.
Static is always a concern when servicing electronic devices. It is highly unlikely that the
area around the print engine is static-free. Carpeting, leather-soled shoes, synthetic
clothing fibers, silks, and plastics may generate a static charge of more than 10,000 volts.
Static discharge is capable of destroying the circuits etched in silicon microchips, or
dramatically shortening their life span. By observing standard precautions, you may avoid
extra service calls and save the cost of a new board.
When possible, work on a ground-connected antistatic mat. Wear an antistatic
wristband, grounded at the same place as the antistatic mat. If that is not possible:
Attach a grounding strap to your wrist. Attach the other end to a good ground.
When you remove an electronic component, place it into an antistatic bag
immediately. Do not walk across a carpet or vinyl floor while carrying an unprotected
board.
Leave new electronic components inside their antistatic bags until you are ready to
install them.
When you unpack the electronic components, touch a metal area of the copier to
discharge the static on your body. Place the components on a grounded antistatic
surface, component-side up.
5.
Avoid flexing a printed circuit board, and handle it by opposing edges (not corners) only.
6.
Never set a cup of coffeeor any liquidon or near any components or the copier.

TO
PREPARE A
USB
N OTE : Make sure the boot priority on your PC is set to boot first from the CD-ROM
drive.
To find out how to access/change the PCs BIOS configuration, see the documentation
that accompanies your PC. Typically, pressing a key during power up (such as F2 or DEL
or F8) will access the BIOS configuration screen.
1.
Power on the PC and as soon as the CD-ROM drive LED goes out, load the USB Flash
Installer CD into the CD-ROM drive.
If you load the CD too late, the PC boots as usual. In that case, restart the PC so that the
PC boots from the CD.
2.
Allow the PC to boot from the CD (several minutes, depending on your PC).
Troubleshooting tips: If the PC fails to display the Flash Drive Setup screen within 30
minutes, make sure that the PC boot priority is set to boot first from the CD-ROM
drive, and make sure that no devices are connected to the USB-A ports. If booting from
the CD still fails, try another PC. It could be that your PC is not compatible with the
boot program on the USB Flash Installer CD.
3.
Follow the USB Flash Installer screen prompts (see page 28). To respond to a prompt,
use only the keyboard; do not use the mouse.
Troubleshooting tips:
The USB Flash Installer CD may not work properly on some PCs. In such cases, the
Flash Drive Setup will complete, but the flash drive will fail to load system software on
the Fiery X3eTY2. If this happens, use a different PC in conjunction with the USB
Flash Installer CD to prepare the flash drive.
If the LED on the USB flash drive fails to light when you connect the flash drive to the
PC, do the following: power off the PC; remove and reinsert the USB flash drive into
the PC; verify that its LED turns on when the PC is turned on.
If an error message appears stating that there is not enough space available on the USB
flash drive, your flash drive capacity is insufficient. Obtain a flash drive with the proper
capacity (specified on page 19), and repeat the preparation process.

If you load the CD too late, the PC boots as usual. In that case, restart the PC so that the
PC boots from the CD.
2.
Allow the PC to boot from the CD (several minutes, depending on your PC).
Troubleshooting tips: If the PC fails to display the Flash Drive Setup screen within 30
minutes, make sure that the PC boot priority is set to boot first from the DVD-ROM
drive, and make sure that no devices are connected to the USB-A ports. If booting from
the CD still fails, try another PC. It could be that your PC is not compatible with the
boot program on the USB Flash Installer CD.
3.
Follow the USB Flash Installer screen prompts (see page 58). To respond to a prompt,
use only the keyboard; do not use the mouse.
Troubleshooting tips:
The USB Flash Installer CD may not work properly on some PCs. In such cases, the
Flash Drive Setup will complete, but the flash drive will fail to load system software on
the Fiery X3eTY2. If this happens, use a different PC in conjunction with the USB
Flash Installer CD to prepare the flash drive.
If the LED on the USB flash drive fails to light when you connect the flash drive to the
PC, do the following: power off the PC; remove and reinsert the USB flash drive into
the PC; verify that its LED turns on when the PC is turned on.
If an error message appears stating that there is not enough space available on the USB
flash drive, your flash drive capacity is insufficient. Obtain a flash drive that has the
proper capacity (specified on page 56), and repeat the preparation process.

Network
If you suspect a network problem, keep in mind the following:
If the Fiery X3eTY2 does not appear in the list of printers on the network, there may be another device on the network with the
same Ethernet hardware address.
There may be conflicting network settings in Setup and on the customers workstation.
Inappropriate Setup options may cause printing problems.
Missing or incorrectly placed printer description files may cause application-specific printing errors.
For additional information, see Configuration and Setup on the User Documentation CD.
1. Make sure the network cable is the correct type and connected to the
designated network port on the Fiery X3eTY2 connector panel (see
page 7).
2. Check the cable connection to the network.
3. Replace the cable with a new or tested cable.
