imagePROGRAF iPF6400SE Power and Plug Requirements
Canon USA Inc. strongly suggests dedicated and properly grounded outlets
be provided for these imagePROGRAF printer devices.
The imagePROGRAF iPF6400SE printer requires a dedicated single-
phase 120V/15A NEMA 5-15 receptacle for proper operation.

IMPORTANT
We recommend an additional standard 120V/15A outlet for service tools,
such as a laptop computer or vacuum that may be used when servicing
or configuring the printer.
Use
only
dedicated
and
properly
grounded
outlets
for
the
imagePROGRAF iPF6400SE printer main unit. It is also strongly
suggested to use dedicated and properly grounded outlets for each
optional accessory. Do not use extension cords. The ground connection
serves to provide the internal electronics with a reference voltage. Faulty
or poor ground sources will cause this reference voltage to fall into a
range that no longer serves as a reliable reference voltage. The internal
logic and programming of the imagePROGRAF iPF6400SE printers will
not perform reliably because there is an insufficient difference between
the internal operating signal voltages and the poor ground reference
signal. A qualified electrician can measure and provide the ground
source that the imagePROGRAF iPF6400SE printers or any computer
controlled office equipment requires.
Before installation, confirm that all necessary receptacles are available.
Phase converters and step down transformers are not supported
