When moving, DO NOT push from the front of the printer. It can tip over if casters are on uneven flooring. Always push
printer from the side.

05.4 Electrical

The AC voltage and current requirements for the ProJet™ Production Printing System are:
115 VAC, 50/60 Hz (dedicated 20 amp breaker)
230 VAC, 50/60 Hz (dedicated 15 amp breaker)
Note: The installation of The ProJet™ Production Printing System shall comply with the National Standards and/or Electrical
Codes of the country in which it is placed.
ProJet™ Production Printing System Power Considerations:
During normal operation, the power usage of the printer will not exceed the continuous current rating indicated in the electrical section (above). A
dedicated, surge-and-spike protected electrical power circuit for each printer should be provided that meets or exceeds the corresponding
continuous current rating.
The ProJet™ Production Printing System is not designed to connect to an IT power system.
Protected Power/Uninterruptible Power: A dedicated, surge and spike protected electrical power circuit is required for each printer installed. No
other equipment is to be installed on this circuit.
Uninterruptible power/active battery backup is

05.5 Client Workstation Requirements

Before a build can be built on the printer, the build data file must be saved or exported to the industry-standard .stl file format, and submitted over
the network (or fashdrive or cable). The compact disk (CD) shipped with the ProJet™ Printer contains ProJet™ Client Software, which is installed
on each intended users' workstation to allow users to select, preview, and submit jobs; as well as manage the build queue (for designated
administrators).
Prior to installing the software, ensure that the initially selected workstation meets the following minimum specifications. The specifications
described represent 3D Systems tested minimum "baseline" configuration for using the client software. It is

Although the Projet™ client software will run on less powerful computers, meeting the minimum recommended
configuration will ensure acceptable performance.
