CHAPTER III INSTALLATION
1.
CONDITIONS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION
Any Laser beam printer is likely to be influenced by the environment of the set-up
location. If the printer is set-up in an inappropriate location, the printer may not perform as
expected. Therefore, the following factors should be taken into consideration before
deciding where to set-up the printer.
1.1.
Environmental Conditions
The printer should not be set up in the locations referred to in the following items (a)
through (d) which specify inappropriate locations for set-up.
(a) Where it is likely to receive direct sunlight or similar light. (For example, next to a
window)
(b) Where it is likely to suffer a big difference in temperature and humidity between the
maximum and minimum levels. (Normal operation environment is within 10°C ∼
32.5°C, 20 ∼ 80%RH and without any condensation.)
(c) Where it is likely to be in a draft of cold air from an air-conditioner or warm air from a
heater, or to receive direct radiant heat.
(d) Where it is likely to be excessively dusty or be subject to corrosive gases such as
ammonia.
(e) Users should select a location with good ventilation and set the printer on a flat
surface.
(f) Users should check that the maximum angle of the set-up location is horizontal to
within ±1°.
1.2.
Basic Layout of Printer Set-up Location
Fig.3-1 shows the basic layout of the printer set-up location that is suitable for smooth
operation and maintenance of the printer.
•
The space in front of the printer (70cm) is necessary to open the front cover.
•
The space at back of the printer (40cm) is necessary to open / close the rear access
cover.
•
The space on both sides of the printer (10cm) is necessary for general access.
