„On a hard, flat, level (1° or less slant at any point around the machine) surface capable of 
supporting the printer, accessories, consumables, and media. Weights are shown 
below.
5A surface can be tested for levelness with a standard round pencil. If the pencil rolls, 
the surface is not level. Clear the area of any obstruction or items such as cables 
that might prevent the printer from sitting directly on the flat, level surface.
„In an area with an ambient temperature range of 50°–95° F (10°–35° C) and relative 
humidity range of 15%–85% (noncondensating).
„Away from cooling and heating sources, extreme temperature or humidity changes, 
direct sunlight, excessive dust, corrosive chemicals or vapors (such as ammonia),

water pipes, refrigerators, and any strong electromagnetic field (such as that created 
by an air conditioner), open flames, or items that can easily burn, or items that produce 
excessive vibration.
If the printer is located in a cold room that is rapidly heated, or if the printer is moved 
from a cold place to a warm, humid place, condensation may occur within the printer, 
degrading print quality. If this occurs, allow the printer to adapt to the environment 
for about one hour before use.
„Away from water.
If using a humidifier or water vaporizer in the room with the printer, use only purified 
or distilled water. Impurities in the water may be released into the air, where they can 
accumulate inside the printer and cause degraded printer output.
„At an altitude of 0–8202  (0–2500 m).
„Near your computer—6.5 (2 m) or less for an IEEE 1284 bidirectional parallel con-
nection; cables for other connections may be longer.
„Close to an easily accessible grounded power supply on an exclusively dedicated 
power outlet.
WARNING!
Do not connect the groundwire to gas or water pipes or grounding for telephones.
„Not connected to the same electrical outlet as noise-generating equipment. If the 
printer is connected to the same circuit used by other high-current machines, such as a 
copier or air conditioner, or to an electrically noisy machine, low voltage or noise may 
cause overheating, computing errors resulting in data loss, and improper performance.
„In a well-ventilated area, but away from wind.
„With enough space to allow adequate ventilation and easy servicing.
Attention
Obstructing the ventilation grilles could present a fire hazard.

							Requirements 149
Computer Requirements
Printer performance depends upon the tpe of computer to which you connect it. We 
recommend a Pentium-class computer with at least 16 MB of RAM (if you’re using 
Windows Me/98/95) or 32 MB of RAM (if you’re using Windows 2000/NT4).
ENERGY STAR Compliance 
Year 2000 (Y2K) Compliance All models of the magicolor 2200 are compliant with 
US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ENERGY 
STAR regulations. After a specified period of inactivity, 
the printer changes to a low-power state (the engine 
remains on, but the fuser turns off). When a print job is 
received, the printer returns to normal power within a 
user-configurable time period.
MINOLTA-QMS would like to reassure its customers by 
pointing out that the design of its products precludes the 
possibility of Year 2000 errors. 
There are two instances when time and date information is 
provided by MINOLTA-QMS printers: when information 
about a print job is stored in the MINOLTA-QMS accounting 
file, and when a time stamp is printed on the header and/or 
trailer page. Date and time information that appears on the header and/or trailer 
page is passed to the MINOLTA-QMS printer by the host computer. Since this 
information is passed in real time, it is virtually impossible for there to be any 
confusion regarding the century date. The real-time clock used to apply the time 
stamp to the accounting files stores the year as four digits and is designed to 
correctly handle leap year calculations, including the Year 2000.
