Airflow
The printer uses two fans to cool its internal parts. Be sure that you do not block
the air vents. Lack of correct cooling and ventilation can cause printer failures and
improper operation.
Declaration of product noise emission values
The following tables show the noise emission values for the 4247 Printer.
Table 30. Sound Emission Levels - with Standard Covers
Sound Emission Category Operating Idling
LWAd (1 bel = 10 decibels) 6.8 bels 3.7 bels
m (bystander positions) 57.9 decibels 26.7 decibels
Notes:
1. LWAd is the declared sound power emission level for a production series of
machines.
2. m is the mean value of the space-averaged sound pressure emission
levels at the one-meter position.
3. The principle printer configuration used to measure the noise emission levels
with standard covers was:
v
Standard covers
v Front Push forms path
v DP print quality
v Without Quiet Mode
All measurements are made in accordance with International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) 7779 and reported in conformance with the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9296.
