The 7158 printer takes up relatively little counter space and may be set
on or near the host computer. With the RS-232C interface, you can
place the printer up to 50 feet from the host computer and power
supply.
Place the printer on a level surface, and make sure there is enough
room to open the receipt cover to change the paper and to open the
front cover to change the impact printer's ribbon cassette. Leave
several inches around the printer for connecting and accessing the
cables.
If the printer has an optional Magnetic Ink Character Recognition
(MICR) check reader installed, you may need to make additional
adjustments to the printer's location. Because devices such as CRT
monitors or large metal surfaces affect the printer's magnetic field, they
can cause intermittent check reading errors.
