The performance of this scanner is affected by the environment in which it is installed. Make sure that the location where the scanner is installed meets the following environmental requirements:

Provide adequate space around the scanner (as indicated in the above diagram) for operation, maintenance, and ventilation purposes.

Provide adequate space behind the scanner in order to eject scanned documents to the back of the scanner. (See “Document Eject Tray,” on p. 45. )

Avoid locations exposed to direct sunlight. If the scanner must be placed in such a spot, hang a heavy curtain or similar object to shade the scanner.

Avoid dusty locations. Dust can get inside of the scanner and cause problems.

Avoid warm or humid locations, such as in the vicinity of a water faucet, water heater, or humidifier, and avoid locations where the fumes from ammonia, paint thinner, or other volatile chemicals may be present.

Avoid unstable surfaces and locations subject to vibration.
