Printer Setup and Installation
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 (a) near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or (b) 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 turned OFF in a warm, dry room for several hours before using. This will allow
the moisture to evaporate.
