14.1 Description
The Power Supply Unit (PSU) is situated in the electronics com-
partment inside the CPU board.
WARNING!
Make sure that the printer is switched off and that
the power cord is disconnected. The power supply
unit contains high voltage wire and circuits.
To gain access to the PSU, fi rst remove the CPU board, which is
held by one #T20 Torx screws to the rear plate (below the RS-232
connector) and one #T10 Torx screw at each of the upper corners.
The PSU is held to the rear plate by two #T20 Torx screws, and to
the center section by two more #T20 Torx Screws accessible from
the media compartment. The PSU is connected by two cables: one
to the CPU board and another to the printhead.
The power supply unit is primary-switched with power correction
factor controller so as to comply with the CE regulations, which
require a sinus-shaped load curve. It is designed for input volt-
ages in the range of >90 to <264 VAC, 45 to 65 Hz without any
manual switch. The unit delivers 175W continuously and about
400W peak. It has a thermostat-controlled fan and an automatic
overheating protection switch.
