Printer Location
Place the printer in a dust-free area within a temperature range of 50° F to 90° F (10° C to
■
32° C) and a relative humidity range of 10 percent to 80 percent.
■ Place the printer in an area where there is adequate space for ventilation, operation, and
servicing.
■ Do not place the printer on a carpeted floor. Airborne carpet fibers can be pulled into the
printer and cause print-quality problems.
■ Do not place the printer near a heat source.
Do not place the printer in direct sunlight to avoid exposure to light-sensitive components.
■
■ Do not place the printer where it is directly exposed to the cold air flow from an air
conditioning system.
Printer Clearance
The recommended minimal spacing is:
■ 20.00 cm (7.5 in.) above
■ 10.16 cm (4.0 in.) behind
■ 10.16 cm (4.0 in.) left side
■ 40.00 cm (15.5 in.) right side to allow access to the maintenance kit and waste tray
Operational Guidelines
■ Do not block or cover the slots and openings on the printer. The printer can overheat
without adequate ventilation.
■ Use the printer at elevations below 2,438 m (8,000ft.).
Place the printer on a level, solid, non-vibrating surface with adequate strength to hold the
■
weight of the printer. The base printer weight, without any packaging materials, is
approximately 28 kg (60 lb.). The printer should be within 2° horizontal with all four feet
in solid contact with the surface.
Printing Safety Guidelines
■ Keep hands, hair, neckties, etc., away from the exit and feed rollers.
Do not remove the paper source tray that you selected in either the printer driver or control
■
panel.
■ Do not open the doors when the printer is printing.
■ Do not move the printer when it is printing.
Printer Supplies
■ Use the supplies specifically designed for your printer. The use of unsuitable materials
may cause poor performance and a possible safety hazard.
■ Follow all warnings and instructions marked on, or supplied with, the printer, options, and
supplies.
