Location Requirements
nOn a hard, level surface capable of supporting the 53 lb (24 kg) printer. (By “level” we mean that the surface should be so flat—1° or less slant—that you can lay a round pencil down on it, and it doesn’t roll in any direction.)
nIn an area with a temperature range of 50° - 95° F/10° - 35° C (with temperature fluctuation of ±10°) and relative humidity range of 15% - 85% (with humidity fluctuation of ± 20°).
nAway from cooling and heating sources, extreme temperature changes, direct sunlight, excessive dust, corrosive chemicals or vapors, water pipes, refrigerators, any strong electromagnetic field (such as that created by an air conditioner), items that can easily burn (such as a curtain), and excessive vibration. Don’t connect it to the same electrical outlet as noise-generating equipment.
n6 feet (1.8 meters) or less from your PC for a parallel connection.
nClose to an easily accessible power supply.
nIn a well-ventilated room.

Power Requirements
Your printer requires a properly grounded AC outlet with a power range of ±10% of the rated line voltage (either 100/120 V or 220/240 V).
»Note: Your printer cannot automatically switch between voltages; in other words, 110 volt and 220 volt systems are not interchangeable. To determine the rated voltage of your printer, refer to the data plate on the back of the printer.
Make sure that the capacity of the electrical outlet is at least 1.2 times that used by the printer. Noise-generating equipment should not be connected to the same electrical outlet as the printer.
The recommended frequency is 50-60 Hz for a 100/120 V system and 50-60 Hz for a 200/240 V system. The frequency fluctuation is ±0.3%.
Energy Star Compliance
The QMS 2060 WX Print System is compliant with US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star regulations. After a specified period of inactivity, the printer changes to a low-power state (the engine remains on, but the fuser turns off).
When a print job is received, the printer 
returns to normal power within 90 seconds.
PC Requirements
Printer performance depends upon the type of PC to which you connect it. We recommend a Pentium-class PC with at least 16 MB of RAM (if you’re using Windows 95) or 32 MB of RAM (if you’re using Windows NT 3.51 or 4.0).

Install the Toner
Cartridge
Make sure that all of these items are included in your shipment before setting up your printer. If any items are missing or damaged, contact your shipping company or your QMS vendor. See appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” for product sales and support information.
Install the Toner Cartridge
»Note: Toner cartridges are sensitive to bright light. Don’t remove one from its protective bag until you’re ready to install it. Store toner cartridges in an environment that is not subject to extreme heat or humidity, salty air, or corrosive gases, such as aerosols. Also, keep toner cartridges away from your computer. The magnets in the cartridges can damage data, particularly on floppy disks.
1 Pull the latch on top of the printer forward, and open the top cover.
2Remove a toner cartridge from its shipping carton and protective aluminum bag.
»Note: Don’t open the cartridge cover or touch the OPC drum of the cartridge; this may deteriorate the drum and reduce print quality.

Load the Media
Cassette
Load the Media Cassette
The QMS 2060 WX Print System comes standard with a 250-sheet universal cassette. Loading media in the cassette involves the following steps:
nPrepare the paper
nLoad the paper
Prepare the Paper
»Note: Ensure that the media size matches the cassette size (for example, letter/A4 media must be loaded only when the universal cassette is set to letter/A4 size or when a letter/A4 cassette is available). Since the media cassette sends a media size signal to the printer controller, using the wrong size media will cause your image to be positioned incorrectly on the page or clipped.
1Unwrap the paper, and pull the stack out.
»Note: Don’t unpack the paper above the printer because this might cause particles to fall into the printer components. Note the arrows on the wrapper. They show which side of the paper should be on the top when it’s loaded in the cassette.
2With one hand at each end of the stack, lift and hold it in a curved position, without gripping.
3Grip each end of the stack firmly.
4Straighten the stack, and then roll the fanned sheets from side to side to get air through the sheets and prevent static buildup.
5Take off the top and bottom sheets.
ICaution: The top and bottom sheets sometimes have residual glue buildup that could cause the printer to jam.

Load the Paper
»Note: Reload the media cassette only when it’s empty.
1Pull out the universal cassette.
»Note: This cassette is known as a universal cassette because you can load any of the supported media sizes in it. In the printer driver it’s called the upper tray because it’s in the upper position if an optional feeder is installed. The cassette in the optional feeder is called the lower tray in the printer driver because it’s in the lower position. Information on the optional feeder are in chapter 5, “Printer Options,” of the User’s Guide. Instructions for using the multipurpose tray are in chapter 3, “Printing,” in the User’s Guide.
Multipurpose tray in the “manual feed” position
Universal cassette in the “upper tray” position
Universal cassette in the “lower tray” position
2 Open the cassette cover.

3Position the cassette.
The cassette has a spring in the bottom that provides some resistance when print media is placed on it. Lay the cassette flat on a hard surface, and push down on the plate in the cassette until it locks.
4 Adjust the media guides to fit the paper size.
