General Set Up & Installation
This handout provides guidelines for supporting the B6500 series of printers.
Before removing any portion of the machine or making any internal adjustments, be sure
power to the unit is OFF (It is STRONGLY recommended that the AC power cord be
removed from the wall outlet!). Suggested corrective actions should be performed in
order as listed. Most conditions can be corrected by performing routine preventative
maintenance. If printer or print quality problems occur, diagnose and correct following
the guidelines in this manual.
During operation, the unit should:
 have the power cord connected.
 be connected to a power source which is rated to machine specifications.
 be installed on a flat, level surface.
 receive good ventilation.

not be connected to an electrical circuit with other equipment or where voltages
may fluctuate.
 not be installed near a direct heating or cooling source or vent.
 not be exposed to high dust concentration.
 not be exposed to direct sunlight
 not be exposed to high temperatures, high humidity, steam or chemical fumes.
NOTE:
Oki Data STRONGLY recommends against having this printer plugged into
an Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) as most units cannot supply enough
current to insure the correct operation of a toner-based product.
