Avoid installing the printer in locations subject to:
• Direct drafts of hot or cold air
• Direct drafts from outside (Avoid locations near building entrances.)
• Sudden temperature or humidity changes
• Sources of high temperature, for example, near stoves or radiators
• Excessive dust
•Vibration
• Unstable surfaces and surfaces that are not level
• Ammonia or other harmful fumes (If you are planning to fumigate the room, or make liberal
use of insecticide, remove the printer first!)

Be sure to secure enough
space around the printer.
Prolonged use without suffi-
cient clearance may cause
heat to build up within the
printer, resulting in fire.
Temperature
10 to 32.5 °C (50 to 90.5 °F), ideally about 23 °C (73.4 °F)

Do not install the printer where temperature or humidity is outside the recommended
range. Print quality may suffer and there will be an increased chance of paper jams.
