3. Installation Requirements
Keep the following in mind when selecting the site of installation:
There must be a power outlet 100–240V AC exclusively dedicated
to the printer. Faulty operation may result if the printer is placed near
devices that produce strong magnetic fields, such as radios, televi-
sions, speakers, etc. In addition, the printer may interfere with
electromagnetic signal reception if used near a television, radio, and
the like.
The temperature must be +15
°
C to +30
°
C (+59
°
F to + 86
°
F) and the
humidity between 10 and 80% RH. In particular, avoid areas near
water faucets, water boilers, humidifiers and refrigerators.
Avoid excessively dusty areas, or areas where there is exposure to
large amounts of salt, such as areas exposed to sea breezes. Do not
expose to corrosive gases.
The room should be well ventilated. Avoid areas subject to extreme
variations in temperature, such as areas exposed to direct sunlight
or adjacent to air conditioning equipment. Do not store the printer
in areas subject to sudden rises in temperature, such as car interiors.
The floor must be flat, level and free from excessive vibrations. The
desk, table, or the like, should be level, flat, and stout enough to
support the weight of the printer (29 kgs/64 lbs) and paper supply.
The space must be large enough to allow at least 10 cm (4") of free
space in all directions around the printer.
If the printer is moved from a place of low temperature or humidity
to a place of high temperature or humidity for installation, dew
condensation may occur. In such cases, let the printer adapt to the
new environment for at least 2 hours before starting the installation.
Please refer to Appendix A.2 for important instructions how to
prepare and pack the printer before transporting it outside the
premises or in a manner that will expose it to vibration. Subjecting
an improperly packed printer to vibration, shock, etc. may result in
damage. Use the original packing material, or order a replacement
set of packing material from your local Intermec distributor.
Observe the following precautions when moving the printer within
the premises to prevent damage or ink leakage:
• Open the sub cover at back of the printer (see chapter 1.7) and
raise the green lever to put the printer in transport mode.
• While moving the printer, two persons should carry it by
grasping the baseplate of the printer main unit. Do not hold onto
the roll unit.
• Do not tilt the printer.
