Select a Location for the Printer
Select a location for the printer that meets these conditions:
• Surface: The surface where the printer will be located must be solid, level, and of
sufficient size and strength to hold the printer.
• Space: The area where the printer will be located must include enough space for
ventilation and for accessing the printer components and connectors. To allow for proper
ventilation and cooling, leave open space on all sides of the printer.
• Power: The printer should be within a short distance of an appropriate power outlet that is
easily accessible.
• Data communication interfaces: The printer must be within range of your WLAN radio
(if applicable) or within an acceptable range for other connectors to reach your data source
(usually a computer). For more information on maximum cable lengths and configuration,
see Table 4 on page 41.
• Operating conditions: Your printer is designed to function in a wide range of
environmental and electrical conditions, including a warehouse or factory floor. Table 3
shows the temperature and relative humidity requirements for the printer when it is
operating.
Caution • Do not place any padding or cushioning material behind or under the printer
because this restricts air flow and could cause the printer to overheat.
