Site Requirements
When selecting the location for the printer, consider interface requirements, power requireĆ
ments, and environmental factors. Select a location with the proper power source available and
within the maximum cable length specifications to interface with the host computer. The
printer is designed to operate in a relatively dust free environment such as a computer room or
business office with an ambient temperature of 41 _ to 104 _ F (5 _ to 40 _ C) and a relative
humidity of 10% to 90%. The site selected for the printer must also allow air to circulate freely
all around the printer. A minimum of 3 feet clearance behind the printer should be provided to
allow air circulation and easy access to the paper stacking area. Figure 10-1 illustrates the site
requirements for floor cabinet model printers. Figure 10-2 illustrates the site requirements
for pedestal model printers.
