2.3 Checking where to Install
the Printer

Before installing the printer, check the environment and space for the
installation.

2.3.1 Installation Environment

Install the printer on a stand or desk in a suitable environment as shown below.

The following gives the ranges of temperature and humidity acceptable for
printer operation.

z Acceptable environment

– Temperature: 10°C to 32.5°C
– Humidity: 20% to 80%

z Recommended environment

– Temperature: 17.5°C to 27°C
– Humidity: 50% to 70%

Do not install the printer in the following places:

z In a location subject to direct sunlight.

z Near an air conditioner, or where it is subject to direct cool or warm drafts,

or radiated heat.

z Where it is subject to exhaust discharged directly from a PC or printer.

z Where the temperature or humidity changes significantly. (Take care so that

the printer is not subject to condensation.)

z Where it is subject to excessive dust or corrosive gases.

z In a location such as a laboratory where chemical reactions occur.

z Where an ultrasonic humidifier is being used.

z In a poorly ventilated location.

z Near equipment which generates electrical noise and strong magnetic fields.

z Where it is subject to vibration or shocks.

z Anywhere that cannot withstand the weight of the printer (about 29 kg/

63.9 lb for the printer with consumables, and about 42 kg/92.6 for the max­imum printer configuration including the options).

z In an uneven place or mounting location that is not level.

z Where it may slide or where it is sloped.

z On more than one stand.

2.4 Checking the Power Source

Check the power source for the printer.

2.4.1 Input Power Requirements

Printer model EU:

z Supply voltage: 220 – 240 VAC

z Frequency: 50 Hz ±2 Hz

Printer model US:

z Supply voltage: 120 VAC ±10%

z Frequency: 60 Hz ±2 Hz

WARNING! Connect the printer to a dedicated wall outlet in compliance with the

specifications of the printer. Connecting the printer to a non-compliant wall outlet may
cause fire or electric shock.
Use a grounded wall socket to prevent an electric shock. Never use a converter plug.

2.4.2 Power Consumption

The printer’s maximum power consumption is 1,300 W.

When determining the power source for the printer, consider its electric power
capacity as well. Should the rated power capacity be exceeded, the ring mains’
circuit breaker may activate.

2.4.3 Precautions

z Ensure that the plug connection is clean. In a damp environment, a contam-

inated connector can draw sufficient amount of current to generate heat and
may, over an extended period of time, cause a fire.

z Always use the power cable provided with your printer. Normally do not use

a power extension, however If it use cannot be avoided then only use only a
correctly rated power extension

z Do not attempt to modify, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power

cable.

z Do not place a heavy object on the cable. A damaged cable can cause fire or

electric shocks.

z Never touch a power cable with wet hands. This constitutes an electric shock

hazard.

Chapter 2 Installation

2-9

z Stop operation immediately if your printer emits smoke, excessive heat,

unusual noise or smell, or if water or any fluid is spilt onto the printer. These
conditions can cause fire.

z Immediately turn off and unplug the printer, and contact your Customer

Support centre.

z If the power cable is broken or insulated wires are exposed, ask your Cus-

tomer Support Center for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause
fire or electric shocks.

z Do not unplug or replug the printer while it is on. Unplugging a live connec-

tor can deform the plug and cause fire.

z When unplugging the printer, grasp the plug instead of the cable. Forcibly

pulling on a cable can damage it and cause fire or electric shocks.

z Be sure to switch off and unplug the printer before accessing the interior of

the printer for cleaning, maintenance, or fault clearance. Access to a live
printer‘s interior can cause electric shocks.

z Once a month, unplug the printer and check the power cable for the follow-

ing:

– The power cable is plugged firmly into a receptacle.

– The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.

– The plug and receptacle are free of dust.

– The cable is not cracked or frayed.

If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your Customer Support centre.

z When the printer is not used over an extended period of time, switch it off

and unplug it. If an unused printer is left connected to a power source for a
long period, degraded insulation can cause electric shocks, current leakages,
or fire.

z Switch off the printer before connecting the interface cable or options. Con-

necting the cable or card with a live printer can cause electric shocks.

2.5 Installing the Printer

CAUTION! Have two or more persons carry the printer. Pay attention not to hurt

your back or drop the printer; otherwise, you may suffer from injury. The printer

2.6.2 Belt Cartridge

Install the belt cartridge in the printer as illustrated below. Pay attention to the
following notes:

Note: Do not touch the photosensitive belt or place it down where it can be

scratched.
The photosensitive belt is very sensitive to light. If this belt is exposed to light of 800
lux or more for 2 minutes or more, it deteriorates, causing troubles in the images
printed. Pay attention not to expose the belt cartridge to light wherever possible.

1. Open the top cover by raising

it. On the right hand side of the
printer there is a recess to allow
this. Raise the cover until it
stays open.

Notes on print media

z Do not use media for ink jet printer.

z Difference between the grain (orientation of paper fiber) and the printer’s

paper feed direction may cause frequent jams. It is advisable to use media
having portrait grain i.e. grain which is parallel to the paper feed direction.

z Some types of media may result in frequent jams or poor printing quality.

When determining the media to use, fully check the printing quality and
make sure jams do not occur.

z Some types of media may shorten the lifespan of the printer’s components

and consumables. In particular, printing a large amount of recycled paper,
thick paper, envelopes, or labels shortens the lifespan.

Using the FLASH SIMM or Hard Disk Option as a
PostScript Device

In order to allow PostScript programs to access the FLASH SIMM and/or
hard disk options, a full implementation of a PostScript storage device is
provided. This section discusses an overview of the PostScript operators and
parameter sets that are included in the support.

For detailed information on using the operators/parameter sets, please refer to
the following publications:

z PostScript Language Reference Manual

z Adobe PostScript 3 Version 3010 Product Supplement

Device Names and Priority

The device names assigned to the FLASH SIMM and hard disk options are as
follows:

If both devices are installed, both devices can be referenced uniquely by name.
If no device name is specified in the PostScript operation, the SearchOrder
parameter in the device parameter set establishes the priority for file
operations. When both devices are installed, the SearchOrder value for the hard
disk is set to 1, while the SearchOrder value for the FLASH SIMM is set to 2.
This gives priority to the hard disk.

PostScript Operators

All of the standard file-object related operators (file, read, write, etc.) are
supported. In addition, following is a list of device-related PostScript
Compatibility operators that are supported for use with the FLASH
SIMM(%flash%) or hard disk (%disk0%) options:

z devdismount

z devforall

z devformat

z devmount

z devstatus

z diskonline

z diskstatus

%flash% device name for the FLASH SIMM

%disk0% device name for the hard disk
