Multiple Original Printer MOPIER

Mopier ( Multiple Original Printer), from the word itself it is a machine that prints out multiple documents and images faster and simultaneously. It’s also frequently associated with Multifunctional Printer (MFP). They are the latest innovations from the leading manufacturers, in which through their intensive and careful studies, analysis and surveys, they are able to come up with the state of the art equipment that captures their market beyond their expectations. Hewlett Packard released its latest LaserJet Pro M275. It’s not just an ordinary MFP but it’s has an additional features that make it able to scan high resolution 3D objects which is mostly in-demand for the film making market. It’s Hewlett Packard’s “TopShot”

Cleaning CPU Fans

People ask how often do we need to clean our computers – as often as possible. One of the least given priority is the CPU fan. Normally, if the CPU fan is unclean or not maintained, it tends to be noisy. It’s either dusty or it lacks oil to spin properly.

To get started, unscrew the CPU fan and pull it out from the computer. Hold it properly, keeping away your fingers from the blade. Spray it with short bursts of air. You may also use an old toothbrush or a sift paint brush to clean the blade and inner part of the fan. Make sure you hold it with your fingers and not to let it spin fast or you’ll get cut.

To fix the fan, use a pointed tool to remove the sticker at the back of the fan. Pour a small amount of WD-40 (lubricant) on the hole to lubricate the bearing. Let it settle. Place the cap back. Give the fan a few spin to have the grease going through the whole bearing. Give it more spin. If you see the fan spinning smoothly, then it is already in good shape and ready to use. Screw it back again in your CPU for use.

Surge Protectors Protect Against Power Surges

The surge protector is an important, yet often overlooked part of a computer setup. It allows multiple devices to plugged in to it at one time and protects each connected device from power surges. For example, a home office may have a computer, monitor, printer, cable modem, and powered speakers all plugged into one surge protector, which is plugged into a single outlet in the wall. The surge protector allows many devices to use one outlet, while protecting each of them from electrical surges. Surge protectors, sometimes called power strips, prevent surges in electrical current by sending the excess current to the grounding wire (which is the round part of the plug below the two flat metal pieces on U.S. outlet plugs). If the surge is extra high, such as from a lightning strike, a fuse in the surge protector will blow and the current will prevented from reaching any of the devices plugged into the surge protector. This means the noble surge protector will have given its life for the rest of the equipment, since the fuse is destroyed in the process. While surge protectors all perform the same basic function, they come in many shapes and sizes with different levels of protection. Some may look like basic power strips, while others may be rack mounted or fit directly against the wall. Most surge protectors offer six to ten different outlets. Cheaper surge protectors offer limited protection for surges (under 1000 joules), while more expensive ones offer protection for several thousand joules and include a monetary guarantee on connected devices if a power surge happens. Typically, you get what you pay for, so if you have an expensive computer system, it is wise to buy a quality surge protector that offers at least 1000 joules of protection. Some surge protectors also include line conditioning, which uses an electromagnet to maintain a consistent level of electricity when there are slight variations in current. For example, you might notice your computer monitor or television fade for a moment when you turn on a high-powered device, like a vacuum or air conditioner. A surge protector with line conditioning should prevent connected devices from being affected by these slight variances in current. While you may be able to hook up your computer system without a surge protector, it is important to protect your equipment by using one. You may not need a large, expensive surge protector with line conditioning, but using a quality surge protector for all your electronic devices is a smart choice.

About UPS Uninterruptible Power Supply

An uninterruptible power supply, also uninterruptible power source, UPS or battery/flywheel backup, is an electrical apparatus that provides emergency power to a computer or server when the input power source, typically the main power fails. An UPS differs from an auxiliary or emergency power system or standby generator in that it will provide instantaneous or near-instantaneous protection from input power interruptions by means of one or more attached batteries and associated electronic circuitry for low power users, and or by means of diesel generators and flywheels for high power users. The on-battery runtime of most uninterruptible power sources is relatively short—5–15 minutes being typical for smaller units—but sufficient to allow time to bring an auxiliary power source on line, or to properly shut down the protected equipment.

While not limited to protecting any particular type of equipment, a UPS is typically used to protect computers, data centers, telecommunication equipment or other electrical equipment where an unexpected power disruption could cause serious business disruption or data loss. UPS units range in size from units designed to protect a single computer without a video monitor (around 200 VA rating) to large units powering entire data centers, buildings, or even cities.
