SECTION 4 : Choosing Adequate Location

- The P-55 is a precision machine. Be careful not to drop or subject the unit to severe impact (it
weighs more than 22 kg).
- The P-55 has been shipped with some internal parts fixed in place with special materials to
prevent the unit from being damaged during transportation. Be sure to remove all shipping
materials before use by referring to SECTION 5 : Installing/Removing Shipping Protection
Materials.
- The Heater Voltage Selector Switch is preset at the factory according to the sales region.
For U.S.A. and Canada
The Heater Voltage Selector Switch is preset to "100-120V" at the factory.
Selecting a wrong voltage may cause the printer to malfunction.
For Europe
The Heater Voltage Selector Switch is preset to "220-240V" at the factory.
Selecting a wrong voltage may cause the printer to malfunction.
- Avoid placing objects in front of the disc tray, or they might cause damage to the tray driving
mechanism.
- Ambient temperatures should be between 15 °C and 30 °C and atmospheric humidity should be
between 30% and 70%.
- Inside the P-55 there are components that cause heat buildup (such as thermal print head and
heat roller). So you should be concerned with air circulation.
CAUTION
Do not block the lateral exhaust opening and the rear intake opening by walls or other obstacles
(a free space of more than 10cm/4 inches is a must). Heat trapped inside the unit might result in
fire or other hazards, as well as malfunctioning and/or deterioration in print quality.
- Place the P-55 on a stable, horizontal surface free from mechanical vibration or shock.
- To maintain consistent print quality, avoid places where temperatures sharply change because of
the direct sunlight or nearby heating apparatuses.
- Avoid dusty places, or the print quality might deteriorate or the printer might suffer failures.
- Never install the P-55 close to windows through which rain droplets can sneak in, which might
cause malfunctioning.
