2.0 Installation

2.1 Pre aring for the installation

2.1.1 AC Power Line

NOTE: AVERY DENNISON requires that the minimum

electrical service be 10 Am s @ 115VAC or 6 Am s @

230VAC. This will allow the AVERY DENNISON SNAP 600

rinter, PC, and any additional su ort or service

equi ment to be lugged into the same service. It is

highly recommended that the rinter and its accessories

be on a dedicated circuit.

The electrical service suppl ing power to the AVERY DENNISON SNAP 600

printer or to peripheral equipment connected to the AVERY DENNISON SNAP

600 printer should meet standard electrical code practices, including proper

grounding and neutrals.

2.1.2 Location Considerations

The printer weighs 45 pounds (20.5 Kg) and requires a table of sufficient qualit

and strength to handle this load. The AVERY DENNISON SNAP 600 printer

requires an area with the approximate dimensions of 72" wide x 30" deep x 32"

high (1.8 m x 76 cm x 81 cm). The host PC (if used) and an printer options will

increase the required area. AVERY DENNISON recommends using an industrial

t pe worktable. Refer to Figure 1 below.

The AVERY DENNISON SNAP 600 printer is designed for eas operator

accessibilit to the printer controls and components. Select our AVERY

DENNISON SNAP 600 printer’s location to meet the following criteria:

1. Choose an area that maintains optimum flow of our product and allows for

the operator’s comfort. Consider the ph sical demands being placed on the

operator with respect to height of the table on which the printer will be

placed, the amount of space around the printer, and the operator’s

accessibilit to the printer. Refer to Figure 1.

2. While AVERY DENNISON has designed the printer to be reasonabl quiet,

select an area where repetitious noise from printing and cutting processes is

acceptable.

CAUTION: It is each customer’s res onsibility to make

sure that the workstation created for the AVERY

DENNISON SNAP 600 rinter meets the recommended

requirements to ensure o timal o eration of the rinter.
