HP 9000 manual Electrical Connections

Electrical Connections

Now that TowerFeed and printer are mechanically assembled, the units have to be connected electrically to each other.

∙Connect the power cables to printer and TowerFeed (Fig. 23a, Fig. 23b).

When installing the optional 3000-sheet output stacker as well, power and data cable have to be connected too:

∙the (short) data cable of the output stacker plugs into the ACCESSORY connector of the printer(Fig. 23c).

The (long) power cable of the output stacker cannot be plugged into a regular power plug. Here are two alternatives:

∙Use a regular appliance cable* to extend the (long) power cable of the output stacker to connect it with a wall plug.

∙Use the HP PowerBox* (C4781-60500, Fig. 24a) with one regular power cable (to connect to the wall plug) and 2+1 connectors for the connection of printer, TowerFeed and output option (Fig. 24b, c, d).

*additional appliance cable and HP PowerBox are not part of the shipment

Now the system is ready to be powered on.

Power-on TowerFeed first and then the printer. That will ensure that TowerFeed is ready when the printer is booting and looking for the installed peripheral options.

Note:

When powering on the system, power on TowerFeed FIRST and then the printer.
