Print Engine Installation
This section provides basic information for mounting the print engine into an applicator. The
illustrations in this section show the print engine from different angles and include dimensions
and clearance needs.
Requirements
Stability When the print engine is mounted, the complete assembly must be physically
stable. When the print engine is loaded with ribbon and media, the equipment must not
become physically unstable.
Ventilation and Temperature Provide ventilation for the print engine mounting enclosure
to remove heat and ensure uninterrupted, trouble-free operation of the print engine. Ambient
air temperature surrounding the print engine must not exceed the following:
• Temperature: 32° to 105°F (0° to 41°C)
• Relative humidity: 20% to 95% non-condensing
Power Requirements Consider the current rating of the print engine during installation.
When power is applied to the print engine and the enclosing equipment, an overload condition
must not be created.
Grounding Requirements Maintain reliable grounding of the print engine. Pay particular
attention to the AC power supply connections so that earth ground is maintained through the
AC power input connector.
Clearance for Cables and Connectors Allow ample space at the rear of the print engine
for electronic connectors and dressing of the following cables: IEC power cord, serial and/or
parallel host communication cable, optional host communication cable (Ethernet), and the
discrete signal (applicator) interface cable.
Power Cord Requirements The IEC power cord does not have a strain relief on the print
engine. If the operating characteristics of the applicator include vibration or strain on the
power cord, provide an appropriate clamping mechanism to avoid unintentional disconnection
of the power cord from the print engine.
