INSTALLING YOUR TERMINAL
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
A proper location helps to ensure that your printer provides you with the long service life for which
it is designed. Double-check to make sure that the location you select has the following
characteristics:
• Choose a location that is well ventilated.
• Make sure you do not obstruct the ventilation grilles located on the left and right-hand sides of
the unit and at the rear of the Front/Back module. If there is a wall nearby when you install the
unit, make sure you install the terminal at the distances shown in the illustration below in order
to make it easier to open the various covers.

Installation
• Make sure there is no chance of ammonia or other organic gasses being generated in the area.
• The grounded power outlet (refer to the safety instructions in the Safety section) you plan to
connect to for power should be nearby and not obstructed.
• Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.
• Avoid areas in the direct airflow of air conditioners, heaters, or ventilators and areas subject to
temperature and humidity extremes.
• Choose a sturdy, level surface where the printer will not be exposed to strong vibration.
• Keep the printer away from any objects that might block its heat vents.
• Do not locate the printer near curtains or other combustible objects.
• Choose an area where there is no possibility of the printer being splashed with water or other
liquids.
• Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
Operational precautions
Note the following important precautions whenever using the printer:
Operating Environment
The following describes the operating environment required when using the printer:
• Temperature:
10°C to 32.5°C (50°F to 95°F) with fluctuation of 10°C (18°F) per hour.
• Humidity:
20% to 80% (no condensation) with fluctuation of 20% per hour.
Terminal
The following describes precautions for using the terminal.
• Never switch the power to the terminal off and never open the covers while the unit is printing.
• Never place flammable gasses, liquids or objects that generate magnetic forces near the terminal.
• When unplugging the power cord, always grasp the plug and never pull on the cord. A damaged
cord creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Never touch the power cord when your hands are wet. Doing so creates the danger of electrical
shock.
• Always unplug the power cord before moving the terminal. Failure to do so can damage the
power cord, creating the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always unplug the power cord if you do not plan to use the terminal for a long time.
• Never place any heavy objects on the power cord, pull on it or bend it. Doing so creates the dan-
ger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always make sure the terminal is not placed on the electrical cord or the communications cables
of any other electrical equipment. Also make sure that cords and cables do not get into the termi-
nal’s mechanism. Any of these conditions create the danger of malfunction and fire.

Operation Setting your
machine
Getting startedDirectoryMaintenanceSafety ContentsInstallation
• Make sure that the power to the printer is switched off before connecting or disconnecting
an interface lead to the printer (use a shielded interface lead).
• Never try to remove any secured panel or cover. The terminal contains high-voltage circuit
which creates the danger of electrical shock when exposed.
• Never try to modify the terminal. Doing so creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always take care that paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal do not get into the
terminal through its vents or other openings. Such objects create the danger of fire or electri-
cal shock.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to spill on or near the terminal. Fire or electrical shock
can occur should water or liquid come into contact with the terminal.
• Should liquid or any piece of metal accidently get inside the printer, immediately turn it off,
unplug the power cord, and contact your dealer. Failure to take this immediate action creates
the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Whenever the terminal emits unusually high amounts of heat, smoke, an unusual odor, or
noise, immediately turn it off, unplug it, and contact your dealer. Failure to take this imme-
diate action creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Avoid using the terminal during an "electrical storm" as this may involve a risk of electric
shock caused by the lightning.
• Paper for printer: do not use paper previously printed by your terminal or any other
printer: the ink or toner deposited on that paper might damage the printing system of
your terminal.
Caution - Be sure to locate the terminal in a well-ventilated location. A minimal amount of
ozone is generated during normal operation of this terminal. Because of this, an unpleasant odor
may result when the printer is used for extensive printing in a poorly ventilated area. For a
comfortable, healthy, and safe operation, be sure to locate the terminal in a well-ventilated area.
