around the printer to ensure smooth operation. Dimensions 
shown in the illustration below are in millimeters.
To install and use any of the following options, you will need the 
indicated amount of additional space.
The 500-Sheet Paper Cassette Unit adds 130 mm (5.1 in.) to the 
bottom and 250 mm (9.8 in.) to the front of the printer. 
The Duplex Unit adds 120 mm (4.7 in.) to the back of the printer.
