Power and Plug Requirements

Canon USA Inc. strongly suggests dedicated and properly grounded outlets be
provided for these imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX Devices.
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX 6800 Series Main Unit requires a
dedicated single phase 120V/15A NEMA 5-15R receptacle for proper
operation.

IMPORTANT
• We recommend an additional standard 120 V/15 A NEMA 5-15 outlet for
service tools, such as a laptop computer or vacuum that may be used when
servicing or configuring the machine.
• Use only dedicated and properly grounded outlets for the main unit. It is
also strongly suggested to use dedicated and properly grounded outlets for
each optional accessory. 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 DX
machines will not perform reliably if 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 DX machines or any
computer controlled office equipment requires.
• Before installation, confirm that all necessary receptacles are available.
• Phase converters and step down transformers are not supported
