Choosing a Place for the Printer Note: If you plan to use a printer stand, follow these guidelines: l Use a stand that supports at least twice the weight of the printer. 17.8 kg (39.3 lbs) for the IQ-870 24.6 kg (54.2 lbs) for the LQ-1170 l Never use a stand that tilts the printer at an angle of more than 15 degrees from horizontal. If you install a cut-sheet feeder, keep your printer absolutely level. l If you position the paper supply below the printer stand, make sure that you allow enough clearance (1.2 inches or 30 mm) between the underside of the stand and the top of the paper supply to keep the paper from catching on the underside of the stand. Also check that the distance between the stand's supports is at least 280 mm (11 inches), to accommodate any paper size you may use. l Position your printer's power cord and interface cable so that they do not interfere with paper feeding. If possible, secure the cables to the printer stand. l Align the paper stack with the tractor sprocket units, so that the paper has a straight path into the printer. Setting Up the Printer 1-5

Choosing a Place
for
the Printer
Note:
If you plan to use a printer stand, follow
these
guidelines:
l
Use a stand that supports at least twice the weight of the
printer.
17.8
kg
(39.3
lbs)
for the
IQ-870
24.6
kg
(54.2
lbs)
for the
LQ-1170
l
Never use a stand
that
tilts the printer at
an
angle of more
than 15 degrees from horizontal. If you install a cut-sheet
feeder, keep your printer absolutely level.
l
If you position the paper supply below the printer stand,
make sure
that
you allow enough clearance (1.2 inches or
30
mm)
between the underside of the stand and
the
top of
the
paper supply to keep the paper from catching on the
underside of the stand. Also check that
the
distance between
the stand’s supports is at least 280 mm (11 inches), to
accommodate
any
paper size you may use.
l
Position your printer’s power cord and interface cable so that
they do not interfere with paper feeding. If possible, secure
the cables to the printer stand.
l
Align the paper stack with the tractor sprocket units, so that
the paper has a straight path into the printer.
