Safety
WARNING: Do not push objects into slots or openings on the printer. Making contact with a voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical shock.
WARNING: Do not remove the covers or guards that are fastened with screws unless you are installing optional equipment and are specifically instructed to do so. Power should be OFF when performing these installations. Disconnect the power cord when removing covers and guards for installing optional equipment. Except for user-installable options, there are no parts that you can maintain or service behind these covers.
The following are hazards to your safety:
•The power cord is damaged or frayed.
•Liquid is spilled into the printer.
•The printer is exposed to water.
If any of these conditions occur, do the following:
1.Turn off the printer immediately.
2.Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
3.Call an authorized service representative.
•Use the power cord supplied with your printer.
•Plug the power cord directly into a properly-grounded electrical outlet. Make sure each end of the cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask an electrician to check the outlet.
•Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not have a ground connection terminal.
WARNING: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly grounded. Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.
•Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct voltage and power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if necessary.
•Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.
•Do not place objects on the power cord.

Safety
The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device at the right rear corner of the printer. If it is necessary to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Note: Leave the printer on for optimum performance and to preserve ink; it does not pose a safety hazard.
