Wall mounting
With the enclosed wall-mounting bar, the copyboard can easily be mounted on a wall.
Attaching the wall-mounting bar
Follow the precautions below to mount the copyboard correctly on the wall
and reduce the risk of it falling down.
a Use the enclosed anchors to attach the wall-mounting bar to plasterboard that is
at least 0.5 in. to 0.63 in. (12.7 mm to 15.9 mm) thick. When mounting the
copyboard on other types of walls, consult with a contractor first and be sure to
use the appropriate types of screws.
Make sure that there is no metal, wood, or wires behind the wall at the points
where the anchors will be installed.
+ Before mounting the copyboard on the wall, check that it is operating correctly.
After loading the paper, lay the copyboard on the floor, facing upward, to check
the operation. The sensor for paper doesn't work when the copyboard is laid on
the floor. If the paper doesn’t come out from the unit after pressing or ,
make sure that the paper is loaded.
During installation, keep in mind that an anchor is difficult to remove once it has
been installed in the wall.
1 Hold the wall-mounting bar against the wall at the position where it
will be attached, making sure that it is level, and then mark the wall at
the four points where the anchors will be installed.
+ Be sure to attach the bar using either pair of holes A or B together with
either pair of holes C or D.
It is recommended that holes A and D be used. However, holes B and C
can be used if necessary.
