Epson 5000 - Manual (Page 17)

Choosing a Place for the Printer
If you plan to use a printer stand, follow these guidelines:
Use a stand that supports at least 16.0 kg (35.3 lbs) for the
ActionPrinter 5000 or 22.0 kg (48.5 lbs) for the
ActionPrinter 5500.
Never use a stand that tilts the printer at an angle of more than
15 degrees from horizontal. If you install a cut-sheet feeder, the
stand must keep your printer level.
If you plan to load continuous paper through the bottom of the
printer, choose a stand that provides an unobstructed paper
path.
Position your printer’s power cord and interface cable so they
do not interfere with paper feeding. If possible, secure the cables
to a leg of the printer stand.
Align the paper stack so that the paper feeds straight into the
tractor’s sprocket units.
