Preventive Maintance There is no customer maintenance required for the 5300 printers. However, printers gather paper dust and other debris through normal use, continued accumulation can eventually lead to printer issues. A general preventive maintenance program can help reduce unnecessary failures and downtime.
A shielded (360 degree) interface cable must be used with this product. The shield must be connected to the frame or earth ground reference at each end of the cable. Use of a cable other than the described here will require that you test this cable with the Pertech printer and your system for FCC and CE mark certification.
