Setting Up Your Printer
Site Preparation
Choosing a site for your printer is important because the environment
affects your print quality. The best site for your printer is one that is
protected from dirt and heavy dust, and has a moderate temperature
and humidity range. In addition, the power source should be adequate
for printer operation and protected from power surges.
Keep the following factors in mind when choosing a printer location:
Keep the operating environment temperature between 50°F and 104°F
(10°C and 40°C).
Do not locate your printer near air conditioners, open windows,
heaters, nor in other areas where the temperature changes abruptly.
The relative humidity should be between 10% and 90%
(noncondensing). Be sure to locate the printer away from any sources
of moisture, such as water faucets, refrigerators, and humidifiers.
The heat load contribution to the environment is 188 BTUs per hour at
idle and can go as high as 2050 BTUs per hour under continuous full-
load printing conditions.
Keep your printer away from dust, dirt, and open flames.
Plug your printer into a grounded (3-prong) outlet.
Minimum floor space recommended for your printer is 36" wide x 36"
deep (91.4 cm x 91.4 cm) to allow air movement around the printer.
Allow space to open printer doors as well. When the doors are fully
opened, the printer takes up 6.5feet (2.0 m) of floor space.
