IMPORTANT

• We recommend an additional standard 120 V/15 A receptacle for service tools,

such as a laptop computer or vacuum that may be used when servicing or

configuring the machine.

• The imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8500 III Series main unit requires a dedicated

single-phase 120V/20 A NEMA 5-20 receptacle for proper operation. Canon

U.S.A., Inc. strongly recommends dedicated and properly grounded receptacles

be provided for the optional accessories. Do not use extension cords. The

ground connection serves to provide the internal electronics with a reference

voltage. Faulty or poor ground sources will cause this reference voltage to fall

into a range that no longer serves as a reliable reference voltage. The internal

logic and programming of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8500 III Series will

not perform reliably because there is an insufficient difference between the

internal operating signal voltages and the poor ground reference signal. A

qualified electrician can measure and provide the ground source that the

imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8500 III Series or any computer controlled office

equipment requires.

• Before installation, confirm that all necessary receptacles are available.
