Location Requirements

On 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.)

In an area with a temperature range of 50° - 95° F/10° - 35° C (with temperature fluctuation of of 15% - 85% (with humidit y fluct uat ion of

Away 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 electri cal outlet as noise-generating equipment.

Power Requirements

Your printer requires a properl y 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 ca nnot autom atically switch bet we en voltages; in other words, 110 volt and 220 volt systems are not interchangeable. To determine the rated voltage of your print e r, 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 Pr int S y stem is complia nt with US Environmental Protecti on Ag ency (EPA) Energy Star regulations. Aft er a specified period of inactivit y, the print er 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 depend s 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).

Load the Media Cassette

The QMS 2060 WX Print System comes stan dard with a 250-sheet universal cassette. Loading media in the cassette involves the following steps:

Prepare the paper

Load the paper

Prepare the Paper

» Note:

Ensure that the media si ze matches the cassett e 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.

1 Unwrap the paper, and pull the stack out.

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 o f the paper should be on the top when it’s loaded in the cassette.

2 With one hand at each end of the stack, lift and hold it in a

curved position, without gripping.

3 Grip each end of the stack firmly. 4 Straighten the stack, and then roll the fanned sheets from

side to side to get air through the sheets and prevent stati c buildup.

5 Take off the top and bottom sheets.

Caution:

glue buildup that could cause the printer to jam.

The top and bottom sheets sometimes have residual

» Note:

Reload the media cassette only when it’s empty.

1 Pull out the universal cassette.

This cassette is known as a universal cassette because you can load any of the supporte d 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.
