Installation and Service Guide
Installing Hardware
•
Is space available near the printer for the E-35A and the optional furniture?
Make sure that adequate space is available for the E-35A and the furniture. Allow enough space at the connector
panel for the cables to route easily and at the side panel so that the E-35A does not interfere with use of or service
to the printer (such as clearing a paper jam). You may need to move the printer away from the wall so that
the interface connectors are accessible.
•
Does the printer require service or adjustments?
Print the printer Test Page before you install the E-35A.
If the image indicates that the printer needs adjustment, inform the customer. After getting approval, complete the
necessary printer service.
Power
•
Is a dedicated, grounded electrical outlet for the E-35A available near the printer?
Locate the grounded electrical outlet that will supply power to the E-35A. Do not run the E-35A and the printer on
the same circuit. If the customer has provided one, use a surge suppressor for the E-35A.
Network
•
Make sure that the network is available at the time set for installation.
•
Verify with the network administrator that the network is functioning before you attach the E-35A.
•
Make sure that the configuration requirements specified in
Configuration and Setup
(which is part of the user
documentation set) have been met for remote computers and the network.
Setting customer expectations
When the site is ready, installation of the E-35A takes about 1 hour. Inform the customer of the following:
•
Some nodes on the network may be unavailable during service.
•
The printer may be unavailable for up to one hour.
•
The site administrator must be available during the installation for network connectivity.
Equipment downtime and impact on the network can be minimized if the site administrator installs a network
connector for the E-35A and confirms network functionality with the connector in place before the date scheduled
for the E-35A installation.
•
The site administrator must have a networked computer available during the installation. The appropriate software
must be installed in advance. Documentation for the networked computer and the network operating software
should be available.
