(use) conditions are satisfied.
If the installing (use) conditions are not satisfied, the machine may
If the installing (use) conditions are not satisfied, the machine may
not display full performances, resulting in troubles. It may also
cause safety problems. Therefore, be sure to arrange the installing
(use) conditions before setting up the machine.
A. Transportation space
For installation of a large size machine, be sur e to check that the
door size is wide enough before bringing in.

the power plug into the power outlet.
When disconnecting the ear th connection, be sure to disconnect
When disconnecting the ear th connection, be sure to disconnect
the power plug from the power outlet in advance.
(5) Power plug
Check the shape of the power plug of the machine, and insert it into
a power outlet of the acceptable shape.
Power plug stated in power capacity.
D. Floor strength and level
This machine is considerably heavy and becomes heavier with an
option installed.
The floor must be strong enough to safely support the weight of the

performed normally, degrading the copy quality.
If not, color shift or image distortion may occur.
If not, color shift or image distortion may occur.
To assure proper Image quality, make sure the machine is setting
level.
E. Direct rays of the sun, dust, temperature,
humidity, gasses, chemicals, vibration
(1) Temperature and humidity (Environmental
conditions)
This machine is designed to per form properly under the specified
temperature and humidity. If the temperature and humidity exceeds
the specified range, the machine may not operate properly and or
cause equipment failure.
Especially when the humidity is too high, paper absorbs humidity to
