3. INSTALLATION
3.1 Conditions Required for Installation
Installation conditions for the lower tray unit are the same as for the printer. Any laser beam
printer is likely to be influenced by the environment of the set-up location. If the printer is set-
up in an inappropriate location, the printer may not perform as expected. Therefore, the
following factors should be taken into consideration before deciding where to set-up the
printer.
3.1.1 Environmental conditions
The printer should not be set up in the locations referred to in the following items 1) through
4) which specify inappropriate locations for set-up.
1) Where it is likely to receive direct sunlight or similar light. (For example, next to a window)
2) Where it is likely to suffer a big difference in temperature and humidity between the
maximum and minimum levels. (Normal operation environment is within 10°C 32.5°C,
20 80%RH and without any condensation.)
3) Where it is likely to be in a draft of cold air from an air-conditioner or warm air from a
heater, or to receive direct radiant heat.
4) Where it is likely to be excessively dusty or be subject to corrosive gases such as
ammonia.
5) Users should select a location with good ventilation and set the printer on a flat surface.
6) Users should check that the maximum angle of the set-up location is horizontal to within
±1°.
