2 Setup and installation
This section describes the setup and installation for the CPI Card Group - Spectrum card printer.
If you have a lamination unit to set up, see the HDP6600 Lamination Installation Guide (PLT-04395) that is
included with the lamination unit for information.
2.1 Selecting a good location
The following guidelines help to ensure optimal printing performance:
■ Place the unit in a location with adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat buildup.
■ Use the dimensions of the printer as a guideline for the minimum clearances to the unit.
■ Allow for adequate clearance in front of the unit to accommodate the unit with its covers open.
■ Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
2.2 Moisture condensation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location or is placed in a a very damp room, moisture may
condense inside the unit. Should this occur, print quality may not be optimal.
Leave the unit unplugged in a warm, dry room for several hours before using to allow any moisture to
evaporate.
