A.1 Locating the Printer
You must locate the printer in a room that has adequate ventilation, and on
a firm base that is close to a clean mains power supply (that is, free from
electrical interference). Ensure that:
• The vents at the base of the printer are free from obstructions, and
there is adequate ventilation around the base of the printer
• There is a gap of at least 150 mm at the rear of the printer to allow
adequate space for the printhead conduit to bend
