Creating an Efficient Working Environment

Here are some points to keep in mind when creating an efficient working environment.

Keep your ImageWriter II out of direct sunlight.

Place it away from chemical fumes and containers filled with liquids—such as coffee cups, flower vases,
and so on.

The work surface should be sturdy, stable (no card tables, please), and free from vibration. Desks, file
cabinets, and printer stands work well.

Operate the ImageWriter II in temperatures from 50 to 104 Fahrenheit (10 to 40 Celcius). You should
not attempt to operate it outside this range.

Avoid operating your ImageWriter II when the relative, noncondensing humidity goes beyond the 20% to
95% range or store it where relative, noncondensing humidity exceeds the 10% to 95% range.

If you use pin-feed paper, consider where to store it. If you use small amounts of paper, slide the stack of
paper under the ImageWriter II. The area under the printer can accommodate up to 200 pages of 16-
pound bond. Position larger quantities so that they flow easily to the printer.

Do not push the paper too far under the printer or try to store too much paper under it. Either practice can
cause jamming.

Place the printer so that printed pages fall away from the printer. Piled-up pages can cause printer jams or
unevenly printed lines.

Control Panel Details

This section shows you how to work with the various buttons and lights on the ImageWriter II control
panel.

The ImageWriter II Control Panel

The Power Light

Turn the ImageWriter II on and off by pressing the On/Off button. When the printer is on, the green
Power light is on.

The Error Light

The Error light can light in three ways: continuously on, blinking, or irregular blinking. Each state indicates
a different problem area.

When the Error light is on continuously, the ImageWriter II has run out of paper. Load the appropriate
paper and press the Select button to continue printing.
