USER’S GUIDE

OPERATING AND STORAGE ENVIRONMENT

Please take note of the following information before using the printer.

Power Supply

Use the printer within the specified power range.

AC power: ±10% of the rated power voltage in your district

Frequency: 50 Hz (220 V– 24 0 V) or 60 Hz (110–12 0 V)

The power cord, including extensions, should not exceed 5 meters (16.5 feet).

Do not share the same power circuit with other high-power appliances, particularly an air conditioner, copier, shredder and so on. If it is unavoidable that you must use the printer with these appliances, it is recommended that you use a voltage transformer or a high-frequency noise filter.

Use a voltage regulator if the power source is not stable.

Environment

The printer should be installed near a power outlet which is easily accessible.

Use the printer only within the following ranges of temperature and humidity.

Ambient temperature: 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F)

Ambient humidity:

20% to 80% (without condensation)

For optimum image quality it is recommended to use this printer within the range:

Temperature:

15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F)

Humidity:

30% to 60%

Because the ink on printouts might flake off when rubbed or the print might appear to be a lighter color if you use the printer out of this range, for optimum print quality use the printer within the shaded range shown in the following diagram.
