Selecting a Location for the Printer
1. Select a dust-free area with temperatures from 10° through 32°C (50°–90°F), and relative humidity
from 15 through 85%.
Note: Sudden temperature fluctuations can affect print quality. Rapid heating of a cold room can
cause condensation inside the printer, directly interfering with image transfer.
2. Place the printer on a level, solid, non-vibrating surface with adequate strength for the weight of
the printer. The printer must be horizontal with all four feet in solid contact with the surface. The
printer weight, without the options or paper, is 19.8 Kg (43.6 lb.). With the 250-sheet feeder, the
duplex unit, and supplies, the weight is 24.2 Kg (53.2 lb.).
3. Ensure that your printer has the proper amount of clearance for all of its features, including any
options you purchased. See the following measurements.
