The Site Preparation Guide, document c01668175, defines the electrical AC Input requirements for
this printer:
-
AC Input: 200-240 VAC, three phase (3ö), 50/60 Hz, 16 Amps maximum
-
Required electrical circuit:
-
200-240 VAC, 20 Amps, 3ö, with NEMA L21-20R locking wall receptacle (North
America/Japan)
-
200-240 VAC, 16 Amps, 3ö, 50 Hz, with 5-pin IEC 60309 wall receptacle (Europe)
See the Site Preparation Guide for full details on wiring and illustrations of the required receptacles.
In North America and other sites with 60Hz AC Input, the “Phase Perfect” Digital Phase Converter
Model DPC-A10 may be used to convert single-phase 200-240 VAC to 3-phase 200-240 VAC suitable
for use with the printer. See the Site Preparation Guide for full details and illustrations.
The AC Input to the printer must be clean and steady at the specified voltage and frequency. If the
printer AC Input requirements cannot be met, i.e., the site is subject to power brownouts and blackouts,
or surges, HP recommends the purchase of a back up power system to ensure the AC Input Power to
the printer is continuously within spec.
In order to withstand short-duration power brownouts and blackouts, HP recommends you use an
uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The UPS must be an online type (vs. stand-by type), also known as
a double-conversion UPS, with a switchover time of 0 (zero) seconds. To support the entire printer, a 3-
phase UPS capable of sourcing a minimum of 8000 VA, at a voltage in the range of 200-240 VAC,
50/60 Hz, 16 Amps maximum per phase. Ensure that the UPS you select has the proper plug and
receptacle (see the printer Site Preparation Guide for details). Connect the UPS AC power input to the
wall outlet. Connect the HP printer AC power input to the UPS AC power output.
