Pneumatic connector
The printer comes with an air gun that you must attach to your air supply. In order to connect your air
supply to the air gun, you must meet the following requirements:
6.35 mm (0.25 in) female connector, BSP or NPT thread
Teflon tape to secure the connection and prevent air leaks
Room and spacial requirements
Temperature and humidity
The temperature, humidity, and temperature gradient during operation and during storage must be kept
within the standard ranges to ensure the correct operation of the printer. Failure to keep these
environmental conditions within the standard ranges may cause image quality problems or damage
sensitive electronic components.

In addition to controlling the temperature, humidity, and temperature gradient, there are other
environmental conditions that must be met during site preparation.
Do not install the printer where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or a strong light source.
Do not install the printer in a dusty environment. Remove any accumulated dust before moving the
printer into the area.
