If so, I suggest you buy one, rather than expect other people to save you £X by each spending time (= money) answering your questions piecemeal. If you HAVE a copy, what about the first dashed item in clause 7 isn't clear? Why don't you just measure the thing? If the 200 W is a linear load, it will almost certainly pass anyway. Being a printer, Class A limits apply. It would probably be difficult to design a 200 W product that didn't meet those limits, let alone a 75 W product. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
