It is very important to remove all shipping restraints prior to operation to avoid
printer damage. It is also important to install the shipping restraints whenever the
printer is moved or shipped to avoid shipping damage.
Power Requirements
A label on the back of the printer next to the power cord indicates the voltage and frequency
requirements. The printer must be connected to the specified power source. Line voltage can
vary 10%. If the line voltage deviates more than 10% during shuttle motor start or operation,
the printer power supply should be reconfigured. A field kit for reconfiguring printer voltage
and/or frequency requirements is available from Printronix. Call your authorized Service Rep
resentative for more details. The printer contains primary circuit protection to accommodate
the start-up current. Consult an electrician if printer operation affects local electrical lines.
P6000L/P6200L Series printers employ a single phase, capacitive start, shuttle mo
tor. 400 lpm models require 14.2 amps and 800 lpm models require 25.4 amps for a
duration of 0.5 sec at motor start-up. This is an important power requirement. It is
recommended to supply power from a separate ac circuit of 20 amps at 50 or 60 Hz.
