Installation
Location conditions
By choosing an appropriate location, you preserve the longevity of the terminal. Check that the selected location has
the following characteristics:
- Choose a well ventilated location.
- Make sure not to obstruct the ventilation grids located on the left and right sides of the device. During the
installation, make sure to place the terminal thirty centimeters away from the surrounding objects so all the lids can
be easily open.
- Make sure that this location does not present any ammonia nor any other organic gasses emission hazard.
- The ground outlet (refer to the security notices presented in the Security chapter) to which you plan to connect
the terminal shall be located close to this one and have an easy access.
- Make sure that the terminal is not directly exposed to sun light.
- Make sure not to place the terminal in an area exposed to an air flow generated by an air conditioning, heating or
ventilation system, nor in an area subject to big temperature or humidity jumps.
- Choose a solid and horizontal surface on which the terminal will not be exposed to intense vibrations.
- Keep the terminal away from any object that could obstruct its ventilation ports.
- Do not place the terminal close to hangings or any other flammable objects.
- Choose a location where the water and other splashes of liquid are limited.
- Make sure that this location is dry, clean and dust free.
Cautions of use
Take into account the important precautions below when using the terminal.
Running environment:
- Temperature: 10 °C to 32 °C with a maximum amplitude of 10 °C per hour.
- Humidity: 15 to 80 % of ambient humidity (without condensation), with a maximum amplitude of 20 % per hour.
Terminal:
The section below describes the precautions to be taken when using the terminal:
- Never turn the terminal off and never open the lids while printing.
- Never use gas or flammable liquids, or objects generating magnetic field close to the terminal.
- When you unplug the power cord, always hold the connector without pulling the cord. A damaged cord presents
a potential fire hazard or an electric shock hazard.
- Never touch the power cord with wet hands. You risk getting an electric shock.
- Always unplug the power cord before moving the terminal. Otherwise, you could risk having the cord damaged
and create a fire hazard or an electric shock hazard.
- Always unplug the power cord when you plan not to use the terminal for a long period of time.
- Never put objects on the power cord, never pull it and never fold it. This could cause a fire hazard or an electric
shock hazard.
- Always make sure that the terminal is not sitting on the power cord or any other electric device communication
cables. Make sure also that neither cord nor cable is introduced to the terminal inner mechanism. This would
expose you to a terminal malfunction risk or to a fire hazard.
- Make sure that the printer is unplugged from the power outlet before connecting or disconnecting an interface
cable to the printer (use a shielded interface cable).
- Never try to remove any fixed pane or hood. The terminal contains high voltage circuits. Any contact with these
circuits can cause an electric shock risk.
