* A sufficient volume of power supply is required to maintain print quality due to high peak
current that may run according to printing. If power supply cable is excessively long, the
operation may become unstable. Cable should be as short as possible. If not available,
connect cables near the printer and place an electrolysis condenser of 2200μ between
power supply and ground. Voltage resistance should be higher than 35V. Make sure to
connect FG wire to prevent from ESD problems.
