Operating the Printer Safely
The following precautions must be observed to assure safe operation of the printer.
Also, do not do anything that is not described in this manual. Doing so may cause an
unexpected accident.
Failure to observe the following items while using the printer may cause a fire,
electric shock or other unexpected accident.
Installation location Do not install the printer in a damp or dusty location
Do not install the printer flammable or explosive materials or near a heater, stove
or other device that produces heat.
Place the printer away from any walls, as shown in the diagram below, to maintain
air flow. Also, maintain at least 4" (10 cm) of open space above the printer.
Blocking the vents may cause the printer to overheat and catch on fire.
Power supply Use a dedicated power cable and do not use an extension cord with multiple outlets.
Be sure to remove any dust from the plug and outlet.
Humidity produces a micro-current on the surface causing overheating or a fire.
Do not damage or modify the Power Cable. Also, do not place heavy objects on it,
pull it, or bend it excessively.
Do not plug in or unplug the Power Cable if your hands are wet.
Be sure to turn off the power and unplug the plug from the outlet before moving the
printer.
Pull on the plug, not the cable, when unplugging it from an outlet.
Handling Do not use flammable sprays near the printer.
Do not touch anything inside the printer unless specified in this manual.
