Select a Site for the Printer
Consider the following when selecting an appropriate location for your printer.
Select a Surface
Select a solid, level surface of sufficient size and strength to accommodate the printer and
other equipment (such as a computer), if necessary. The choices include a table, countertop,
desk, or cart.
Provide Proper Operating Conditions
Because the printer was designed and is fabricated as an industrial-type unit, it functions
satisfactorily in a location that conforms to specified environmental and electrical conditions,
including a warehouse or factory floor. For more information on the required conditions, see
General Specifications on page 93 .
Table 3 shows the temperature and relative humidity requirements for the printer when it is
operating.
Allow Proper Space
The printer should have enough space around it for you to be able to open the media door. To
allow for proper ventilation and cooling, leave open space on all sides of the printer.
Provide a Data Source
If the printer will be located away from the data source, the selected site must provide the
appropriate connections to that data source. For more information on the types of
communication interfaces, see
Select a Communication Interface on page 13 .
Table 3 • Operating Temperature and Humidity
Mode Temperature Relative Humidity

Direct Thermal 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C) 20 to 85% non-condensing
Caution • Do not place any padding or cushioning material behind or under the printer
because this restricts air flow and could cause the printer to overheat.
