Site Requirements

When selecting the location for the printer, consider interface requirements, power requirements, and environmental factors. Select a location that has the proper power source available and is within the maximum cable length specifications for interfacing with the host computer.

The printer is designed to operate in a relatively dust free environment such as a computer room or business office with an ambient temperature of 5° to 40° C (41° to 104° F) and a relative humidity of 10 percent to 90 percent.

The site selected for the printer must also allow air to circulate freely all around the printer. Provide a minimum of three feet clearance behind the printer to allow air circulation and easy access to the paper stacking area. Figure 10–1 and Figure 10–2 illustrate the site requirements for the pedestal and floor cabinet models, respectively.

CAUTION

The warranty may be voided if adequate printer ventilation is not provided. Over- heating and serious damage to printer components can occur if the air vents at rear of the printer are blocked.
