Cabling and Cable Routing
Always use cable tie downs, use locking connectors where possible, allow for kiosk
component servicing, and avoid electrical noise sources.
• All cables that are near the printer, media path, or media should be tied to the
kiosk chassis or printer mounting hardware. The operator can accidentally
disconnect the printer or other kiosk components when maintaining the kiosk.
Cabling must not interfere with the proper operation of the printer and media. The
operator can become caught on cabling and drop heavy media damaging the
kiosk or hurting themselves.
• Service Loops - There should be enough slack in the cabling to not put pressure
on the cable connectors or the circuit boards. Also, enough slack is needed to
disconnect the printer (or their kiosk components) for servicing. Allow for
movement needed to access the cable locks or slide the printer out when using
the Quick-fit hubs.
• Avoid electrical noise sources: fluorescent lighting and ballast, power supplies,
fans, AC power lines, CRT monitors, etc.
• Avoid twisting power and communication cables together. This can cause
spurious noise on the communication port or raise emissions levels.
Large Media Roll Adapter Accessory
The large media roll adapter accessory adds an additional 10cm to the front of the printer.
It is therefore necessary to route cables differently when using this accessory. See
"Routing Cables with the Large Media Roll Adapter" on page 65for additional information.
