Kyocera DP-3600 manual Power supply/Grounding the printer

Chapter 1 Safeguards and Installing the Page Printer

■Power supply/Grounding the printer

WARNING

•DO NOT use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified. Avoid multiple connections in the same outlet. These types of situations present a danger of fire or electrical shock.......

•Plug the power cord securely into the outlet. If metallic objects come in contact with the prongs on the plug, it may cause a fire or electric shock..............................................................................

•Always connect the printer to an outlet with a ground connection to avoid the danger of fire or electrical shock in case of an electric short. If an earth connection is not possible, contact your service representative.................................................................................

Other precautions

•Connect the power plug to the closest outlet possible to the printer.

•Near an AC wall outlet, preferably one that can be used for the printer alone.

•Only use this printer under the voltage listed on the serial No. label attached to the rear panel of the printer.

•The outlet should be earthed, or an adapter should be used.

•If an extension cord is used, the total length of the power cord plus extension should be 5 meters (17 feet) or less.

1-4

•The printer should not be the same power circuit as an air conditioner, fluorescent light, copier, or shredder, because these devices generate electrical noise on the power line. If it must share a power circuit with equipment like this, a light -frequency noise filter or isolation transformer is advisable. (Filters and transformers are available commercially.)

•If the power from the outlet itself appears to be unstable, a line stabilizer should be used. In places where the voltage tends to fluctuate, it may be necessary to install a voltage regulator.

•As the disconnect device is not incorporated in the printer’s AC primary circuit, an easy accessible socket outlet must be provided near the equipment.

•If the printer is used with the optional bulk paper stacker (F-8130) or document finisher (F-8118), in order to avoid short-circuiting, it should be ensure that these devices are plugged securely into their respective power outlets.

•Be sure to connect the ground wire for the printer’s power supply to the ground terminal of the power outlet, to a copper pole buried at least 65 cm (25 inches) in the ground, or to a water pipe approved by the water department for use as a ground.

•Never use a gas pipe as a ground, as this may result in fire.

■Handling of plastic bags

WARNING

•Keep the plastic bags that are used with the printer away from children. The plastic may cling to their nose and mouth causing suffocation. .....................................................................................
