Select a Site
Select a printer site that meets all of the following requirements:
v Cabinet models: Permits complete opening of the printer cover and both doors
of the floor cabinet. Allows at least three feet of clearance behind the printer.
(This permits air to circulate freely around the printer and provides access to the
paper stacking area.)
v Pedestal models: Permits complete opening of the printer cover and good access
to the paper areas at the front and rear of the printer.
v Has a standard power outlet that supplies 88-135 Volts AC or 178-270 Volts AC
power, at 47 to 63 Hz. The printer automatically senses and adjusts itself to
conform to the correct voltage range.
v Is relatively dust-free.
v Has a temperature range of 10 C to 40 C (50 F to 104 F) and a relative humidity
from 15% to 90% non-condensing.
v Is located within the maximum allowable cable length to the host computer. This
distance depends on the type of interface you plan to use, as shown in Table 2.
