2. INSTALLATION
2.1 GENERAL INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
To ensure optimal printer functionality and to avoid making service calls for
problems that are not directly caused by the product itself, bear in mind the
information provided in the following sections.
2.1.1 ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY
Make sure that the electrical wall outlet to which the printer is connected has a valid
ground and that it is able to supply the power needed by the machine. A wall outlet
without ground can cause functional problems and can be a safety hazard.
Do not plug the printer to electrical wall outlets that are already being used by
equipment that could cause electrical noise and excessive voltage fluctuations
(fans and air conditioners, large photocopiers, lift motors, TV radio transmitters and
signal generators, high frequency safety devices, and so on).
Common office equipment (calculating machines, typewriters, terminals and

personal computers) can share the same outlet as long as they do not cause
excessive electrical noise or voltage fluctuations.
2.1.2 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Environmental temperature: 15 to 35D

Relative humidity: 15 to 85%
During machine storage and operation, make sure that condensation does not form
as the result of extreme environmental variations. Dust, dirt and smoke can cause
the parts in motion to wear excessively, short circuits (in the presence of a high
degree of humidity) and read/write errors during operation. High temperatures and
low humidity can cause problems due to static electricity.
2.1.3 LOCATING THE MACHINE
The printer must be installed on a flat, vibration-free surface.

Do not position the machine near air conditioning systems, heat sources or in direct
sunlight.
Do not obstruct the printer's ventilation slots.
If the printer is installed in a cabinet, make sure that it has good ventilation so as to

4. FAILURE DIAGNOSE AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
4.1 MAINTENANCE
The following describes maintenance method for field engineers.
4.1.1 FAULT DETECTION ANALYSIS
The user who detected product malfunction can give information regarding the
operating mode the printer was in when the malfunction occurred and the related
error indications that were provided. The repetition of the fault, when possible, can
help with its identification. For fault diagnosis purposes, it is important to establish
whether the fault is repetitive or random.
4.1.2 ANALYSIS OF THE OPERATING CONDITIONS

WORKING ENVIRONMENT:
- An environment that is too cold, hot or humid could be the cause of certain
malfunctions. The machine must not be positioned near air conditioning system
vents or exposed to direct sun light. Make sure that the machine's internal
ventilation slots are not blocked, especially if the printer is installed in furniture.
- Forms, documents or office equipment located.
- Make sure that the accessories installed in the machine are originals and in
good condition.
- Check that the documents inserted in the printer comply with the machine
specifications and are in good condition.
PRINTER OPERATING CONDITIONL:

- Check that the internal parts of the machine have no dirt deposited or residue
of paper or ink that could interfere with the performance of the printer's
different components.
- Make sure there is no internal damage caused by the insertion of documents
with metal clips, staples, and pins or similar.
- Ensure that the parts specified are correctly lubricated.
4.1.3 IDENTIFYING THE MALFUNCTION
- Carefully examine all the information collected (from the Operator, printer error
signals, analysis of the documents where the fault has occurred, repetition of
the error when the machine is powered on, etc.) to recognize and identify the
machine malfunction to be corrected.
- At times a malfunction is generated by more than one cause: it is important in
such cases to isolate the faults and deal with them one at a time.
4.1.4 FINDING THE CAUSE
Using experience together with the information given in this section as a guide,
take a logical path to find the fault, starting from the most probable cause through,
to the most possibility until malfunction part is found.
