Section 2: Setup and Installation Procedures
This section describes the setup and installation for the DTC1000, DTC1000M, and the DTC4000
Card Printers.
Choosing a Good Location
Follow these guidelines:

Place the unit in a location with adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build up.

Use the Printer's dimensions as a guideline for the minimum clearances to the unit. (Note: Allow for
adequate clearance in front of the unit to accommodate the unit with its Covers open.)

Do not install unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
About Moisture Condensation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense inside the unit. Should this occur, print quality may not be optimum.
Leave the unit unplugged in a warm, dry room for several hours before using. This will allow the moisture
to evaporate.
Caution: For safety purposes, Ethernet is not intended for a direct connection outside of the
building.
