Installing the Printer
Choosing a Location
The location of installation affects the performance of the RP90 Plus E and the optional RL90
Laminator. Install them in a location that meets the following criteria.
•
Use the card printer in locations with the cleanness Class 8 or better of
ISO14611-1. Using the card printer in dusty locations may cause print blurring
and printhead malfunctions. Turn the power off whenever no printing
operation is required. Leaving power on for long periods without printing may
cause fine dust to collect inside the printer, causing print blurring and dust to
adhere to cards.
•
Avoid locations susceptible to strong vibration or shock.
•
Avoid locations exposed to direct sunlight.
•
Avoid locations where there is a possibility of metal objects or other foreign
material entering the unit.
•
Avoid areas near walls with little ventilation.
