2–2 Installation
Before You Begin...
Read this chapter carefully before installing and operating the printer. The
LG06 and LG12 are easy to install, but for your safety, and to protect
valuable equipment, perform all the procedures in this chapter in the order
presented.
Power Requirements
Connect the printer to a power outlet rated at 100–120 Vac or 200–240 Vac at
50 or 60 Hz. The printer automatically senses and adjusts itself to conform to
the correct voltage range. Primary circuit protection is built into the printer:
the power switch is also a circuit breaker. Consult an electrician if printer
operation affects local electrical lines. See Appendix B for power
specifications.
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that printer power be supplied from a separate ac
circuit protected at 20 amperes for 120 volts or 10 amperes for 230 volts
at 50 or 60 Hertz.
Select a Site
Select a printer site that:
• Permits complete opening of the printer cover and both doors of the
floor cabinet. (See Figure 2–1.)
• Allows at least three feet of clearance behind the printer. (This
permits air to circulate freely around the printer and provides access
to the paper stacking area.)
• Has a proper power source
• Is relatively dust–free.
• Is located within 9 meters (30 feet) of the host computer when using
the parallel interface and 15 meters (50 feet) when using the serial
interface
• Has a temperature range of 10° C to 35° C (50° F to 95° F) and a
relative humidity from 10% to 90%.
