Select a printer site that meets the following requirements:
•
Cabinet models: Permits complete opening of the printer cover and both
doors of the floor cabinet. See dimension requirements in Figure 2.
•
Pedestal models: Permits complete opening of the printer cover and good
access to the paper areas at the front and rear of the printer. See
dimension requirements in Figure 2. In addition, the location for the
pedestal models must be able to handle the acoustics level of the printer.
•
Has a power outlet that supplies 100 to 120 Volts AC or 200 to 240 Volts
AC at 47 to 63 Hz. The printer automatically senses and adjusts itself to
conform to the correct voltage range. For more information, see the input
voltage characteristics in Appendix A, “Printer Specifications.”
•
Is relatively dust-free.
•
Has a temperature range of 10
°
C to 40
°
C (50
°
F to 104
°
F), and a
relative humidity from 10% to 90% (noncondensing).
•
Is located within the maximum allowable distance to the host computer.
This distance depends on the type of interface you plan to use, as shown
in the following table:
NOTE: For more reliable data transfers, a maximum of six feet is
recommended for parallel cable length.
Type of Interface Maximum Distance to Host
PC Parallel (See Note below) 5 meters (15 feet)
IEEE 1284 Parallel
(See Note below) 10 meters (32 feet)
Serial RS-232 15 meters (50 feet)
Serial RS-422 1220 meters (4000 feet)
