Safety Regulations

The printer P 405 fulfils the safety regulations according to UL 1950 and VDE

(IEC 950) and CSA 22.2/No. 950 for computer systems.

The mains cable must be connected to a ground protected wall-socket. The

selected voltage of the printer needs to agree with the local voltage.

The power plug must be easily accessible at any time so that it can be

disconnected immediately in case of danger or for maintenance purposes..

Comme le câble de secteur sert de dipositif d'arrêt-urgence, sa connexion à

l'imprimante doit être tout le temps accessible.

Before installing the printer, check the surrounding conditions in which the

printer will be placed (see next page, Operating Environment and chapter 1).

During a thunderstorm you should never attempt to connect or disconnect any

data transfer cables.

The power supply should only be opened and checked by authorized

personnel. Repairs and maintenance beyond the descriptions of chapter 9

may only be attempted by authorized personnel as well. Repairs done

inappropriately may cause damage and severe danger for the user.

We certify that the equipment at issue,

Type: Printer P 405

corresponds to the law regulations ruling electromagnetic compatibility of

appliances (89/336/EWG) and, therefore, fulfils the requirements for conformity

marking with the CE-sign.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a

Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the in-

struction manual, may cause interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, it can be determined by turning the equipment off and on.

The user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the

following measures:

-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

-Increase the separation between the equipment and

receiver.

-Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from

the circuit to which the receiver is connected.

-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for

help.

Shielded interface cables should be used with this unit to ensure compliance

with Class B limits.

Changes and modifications not explicitly allowed by the equipment's

manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Changes et modifications pas expressément approuvés par le producteur

peuvent dévaluer l'autorité d'opérer l'équipement.

III IV

Operating Environment

Avoid installing the printer where it is exposed to moisture or heat (eg. direct

sun light).

-Temperature: + 10EC to + 35EC (+50EF to +95EF)

-Humidity: 20% to 80%

-Humidity with Automatic

Sheet Feeder (ASF): 30% to 70%

Slots and openings in the printer's housing are provided for ventilation. Always

ensure that these openings are not obstructed.

Also ensure that the cables at the rear of the printer do not interfere with the

output paper path.

When processing fanfold paper always place the printer with its front edge

slightly off the edge of the table.
