2.0 Installation

2.1 Preparing for the installation

2.1.1 AC Power Line

NOTE: AVERY DENNISON requires that the minimum

electrical service be 10 Amps @ 115VAC or 6 Amps @

230VAC. This will allow the AVERY DENNISON SNAP 500

printer, PC, and any additional support or service

equipment to be plugged into the same service. It is

highly recommended that the printer and its accessories

be on a dedicated circuit.

The electrical service suppl ing power to the AVERY DENNISON SNAP 500

printer or to peripheral equipment connected to the AVERY DENNISON SNAP

500 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 500 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 500 printer is designed for eas operator

accessibilit to the printer controls and components. Select our AVERY

DENNISON SNAP 500 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 responsibility to make

sure that the workstation created for the AVERY

DENNISON SNAP 500 printer meets the recommended

requirements to ensure optimal operation of the printer.
