Installation Manual
Warranty disqualifier
The boxes addressed to the customer may be opened only by a qualified HP Indigo Customer
Engineer. Any unauthorized opening of the boxes may void the warranty on the press and its parts.
This manual and the corresponding Quick Reference Checklist are intended for use by the Customer
Engineer. The engineer should obtain the manual prior to the installation of the press.
CAUTION: The HP Indigo press w3250 printing engines,
unwinder and rewinder may be lifted or transported
only by specially trained and qualified personnel
using lifting bars, lifting straps, and other
specialized equipment that meet HP Indigo
specifications as well as any additional
requirements imposed by central and local
government regulations.
Improper lifting may cause serious personal injury
and/or damage to the press or other property.
Do not lift the printing engines (PE) from the paper
input or paper exit side.
When lowering the printing engines from the fork
lift, place wedges on the floor in front of the wheels
to prevent slipping.
The press must be hard connected to the mains by a qualified local electrician in accordance with
local safety regulations. The connection must be through a lockable mains supply disconnect switch
rated at 32 A 5000 AIC type G. The cables must be protected by a conduit.

Alignment jigs are used to adjust the forward/rearward alignment of the printing engines.
The jigs are used with a surveying tool (scope). They are not identical. When mounted properly, the
sights on the jigs increase in height going from PE1 to PE2. The increase in height allows all the sites
to be visible in the surveying tool. Adjustments can then be made to the position of the printing

engines until all the sights are lined up with the crosshairs in the surveying tool (Figure 2 and
Figure 3).
The parallel jig
The Parallel jig measures the variation in distance (parallel) along the length of two rollers. It is used
to accommodate the various adjustments necessary to bring the rollers of all the press components
(printing engines, ILP, unwinder) into parallel with the rollers of the adjacent one. Adjustments can
then be made to the press component position until the variation in distance is either zero or minimal.

The jig may be extended between rollers of distances using the three extensions which are attached
to the base. The v-section is suitable for rollers of diameter 50 - 79 mm, whereas the dial bracket,
buffer and dial are suitable for rollers 79 - 80 mm in diameter (Figure 4).
The long

configuration is used to make the following alignments (Figure 4):
To align the ILP to PE1
• To align the unwinder to the ILP
The intermediate configuration is used to make the following alignments (Figure 4):
•
To align one of the rollers in the exit-side stepping plate of the ILP to PE1
• To align one of the rollers in the input-side stepping plate of the ILP to the ILP itself

ble the new Parallel jig to align two rollers (Figure 4):
Insert the measuring gauge fixture into the desired extension (long, intermediate, short).
Tighten the handle.
2. Insert the extension into the base so that the V-section and the gauge are facing the same
direction.
Tighten the two handles to secure the extension.
NOTE: Disassembly is the reverse of the above two steps.

4. Mount the gauged end of the jig on the specified roller needing to be aligned.
5. Loosen the screw securing the gauge support on the fixture, and slide it back so it does not
interfere with placing the wheel.
6. Loosen the lock nut for the handle securing the gauge fixture in the extension.
7. Adjust the position of the gauge fixture in the extension so that the wheel rests on the roller
and coincides with the vertical centerline of the roller.
Tighten the handle and the lock nut.
8. Slide the gauge support back until the contact touches the roller.
Continue sliding the gauge until the needle makes one complete turn.
Tighten the screw to secure the gauge support in place.
Prerequisites
Completion of site preparation.
Estimated installation time
4 days
Special skills
Only specially trained personnel should perform this installation.
Special jigs and tools
All special jigs and tools required for the installation of the press are included in the installation kit.
Confirm the contents of the installation kit with the Bill of Materials (BOM).

Installation Manual
Pre-installation procedure
Verifying site preparation
Verify that the pressroom has been equipped with the following per the HP Indigo press w3250 site
preparation guide:
Chiller input and output
Power for press
Air conditioning of work area
Fast Ethernet networking
Parts cleaning station
External densitometer
Lockable main switch
Electrical outlets installed near pluggable equipment and are easily accessible
The printing engines may be mounted on the u-bases on-site or off-site. Make sure that the entrance
to the site is large enough to allow an object 2200 mm high to enter.
Marking the pressroom floor for press components
1. Open the installation kit and select the marking pen.
2. Use the marking pen to mark the pressroom floor with the profile of the main press
components and indicate their placement. Refer to the HP Indigo press w3250 site
preparation guide for details of the floor area.
Unpacking the boxes
1. Before opening the boxes, check that the shock and tilt sensors have not changed color to
red. If either of the sensors has changed color to red, then the boxes were mishandled. Notify
the Regional Service Manager or Installation Manager immediately.
2. Unpack the box containing the accessories kit.
Open the accessories kit, and remove the System Information File.
Remove the customer letter about residual ink (P/N SV8-0039-00) from the System
Information File.
3. Give the letter to the customer.
4. The boxes are opened in the order of installation. At each stage of the installation open each
box carefully and inspect the part for damage before installing. If any part shows signs of
damage, immediately notify the Response Center or Regional Service Manger.
Verify the contents of each box according to the contents list included with the boxes.
5. Notify the Regional Manager or Installation Manager regarding any installation problems or
damage found when unpacking the boxes.

Procedure
NOTE: Two persons are required for this installation.
Installing the electrical cabinets
1. Place electrical cabinet M1 and electrical cabinet M2 in their positions.
2. If any of the finishing components include electrical cabinets, position that cabinet opposite its
corresponding finishing component and in line with the main electrical cabinets.
Installing the printing engines
Positioning the printing engines
1. Position the u-bases as follows
a. Unpack the u-bases and loosen the front two securing screws to remove the u-base
slip plates.
Place the slip plates aside for later use.
