Selecting a location for the printer

Before you unpack the printer, you need to select a location for it. Leave enough room to open trays, covers, and

doors. If you plan to install the optional finisher, leave enough room for it also. It is important to:

• Allow enough space around the printer for proper ventilation.

• Provide a flat, sturdy, and stable surface.

• Keep the printer:

– Away from the direct airflow of air conditioners, heaters, or ventilators

– Free from direct sunlight, humidity extremes, or temperature fluctuations

– Clean, dry, and free of dust

CAUTION: The printer weighs 91.2 kg (201 lb); therefore, it requires two people to roll it safely into

place. The scanner weighs 25 kg (55 lb); therefore, it requires two people to roll it safely while it is on

its scanner shelf.
