•Has a power outlet that supplies 100 to 120 Volts AC + 10%; 50 or 60 Hz or 200 to 240 Volts
10%; 50 or 60 Hz. The printer automatically senses and adjusts itself to conform to the
AC +

•Has a temperature range of 10°Cto 40° C (50° F to 104° F), and relative humidity from 15%
to 80% non-condensing.
•Is located within the maximum allowable distance to the host computer. This distance
depends on the type of interface you use. Refer to the table at the end of this section.
•Allows at least 27 inches of clearance behind the printer. This permits air to circulate freely
around the printer and provides access to the paper stacking area.
