1.2 Room Conditions
For normal and safe operation, install the machine in the following environment.
● Temperature: 15°C to 28°C (Free from moisture condensation)
If the temperature in the room is over 28°C or under 15°C, proper printing quality may not be
assured. At low temperatures, the machine takes a long time to start printing or errors may
occur.
When a cold room is warmed rapidly, water droplets are formed inside the machine (moisture
condensation), causing donor/receiver jamming or print quality deterioration. Use the machine
in a place not subject to sharp changes in the temperature.
● Humidity: 30%RH to 70%RH
If the humidity in the room is over 70%RH, a transfer error may occur in the donor or receiver, or
the receivers may become damp, causing print quality deterioration. Do not install the machine
in a place near a water tap, boiler, humidifier, air conditioner, or heater. And always keep the
room humidity at 30%RH to 70%RH.
● Ventilation
Make sure the installation site is well-ventilated and not dusty.
IMPORTANT: A dusty environment may cause spotting* on the picture surface.
● If the machine, donor, or receiver magazine is subject to direct sunlight, light from electronic
flash, or strong reflected light, use curtains or blinds to avoid this.
NOTE: A strong light may cause fogging**.
● The installation site must be free of ammonia, formalin, and sulfurous acid vapor. Such vapors
will cause a deterioration in printing quality and rust on the machine.
● Do not place volatile combustibles, such as thinner or alcohol, near the machine.
● Make sure the installation room floor is level, stable, capable of withstanding the machine weight,
and not subject to strong vibration. Each caster can withstand a weight of about 30 kg.
* Spotting: White dots
** Fogging: Print discoloration caused by extraneous light on the photo-sensitive material (donor).
