Power Requirements

CAUTION

MVP–Series printers employ a single phase, capacitive start shuttle

motor. All models require 120 volts at 4 amps for a duration of 0.5

seconds at motor start–up. This is an important power requirement and

is recommended to supply power from a separate AC circuit of 20 amps

at 60 Hz.

VORSICHT

Die MVP Drucker benuetzen einen ein–phasigen, kapazitive–startenden

Pendelmotor. Die MVP Modelle benoetigen beim Anlassen 0,5 Sek. lang

25,4 A. Diese Stromanforderung ist wichtig und es wird empfohlen den

Strom aus einem gesonderten AC–Stromanschluss von 20 A bei 60 Hz zu

decken.

A label on the back of the printer near the power cord shows the voltage and

frequency requirements. The printer must be connected to the specified

power source, either 110, 220 or 240 volts at 50 to 60 Hz. Line voltage can

vary by 10%. The printer automatically senses and adjusts itself to conform

to the proper voltage. The printer contains primary circuit protection. Consult

an electrician if printer operation affects local electrical lines.
