1-1

Electrical Safety

■ Use the power cord supplied with your printer.

■ Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. 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.

■ Do not use an extension cord or power strip.

Warning: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly

grounded. Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.

■ Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.

■ Do not place objects on the power cord.

■ Do not block the ventilation openings. These openings are provided to prevent overheating

of the printer.

■ Do not drop paper clips or staples into the printer.

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.

If you notice unusual noises or odors:

1. Turn off the printer immediately.

2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

3. Call an authorized service representative to correct the problem.

The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device at the back of the printer. If it is necessary to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

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. Except for user-installable options, there are no parts that you can maintain or service behind these covers.

Note: Leave the printer on for optimum performance; it does not pose a safety hazard.

Dell 7330 Mono Laser Printer

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:

1. Turn off the printer immediately.

2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

3. Call an authorized service representative.

Maintenance Safety

■ Do not attempt any maintenance procedure that is not specifically described in the

documentation supplied with your printer.

■ Do not use aerosol cleaners. The use of supplies that are not approved may cause poor

performance and could create a hazardous condition.

■ Do not burn any consumables or routine maintenance items. For information on Dell

supplies recycling programs, go to www.dell.com/recycling

Operational Safety

Your printer and supplies were designed and tested to meet strict safety requirements. These include safety agency examination, approval, and compliance with established environmental standards.

Your attention to the following safety guidelines helps to ensure the continued, safe operation of your printer.

Printer Location

Place the printer in a dust-free area within a temperature range of 41° F to 90° F (5° C to 32° C) and a relative humidity range of 15 percent to 85 percent.

Printer Clearance

Place the printer in an area where there is adequate space for ventilation, operation, and servicing. The recommended minimal spacing is:

Overhead Clearance

■ 30 cm (12 in.) above the printer without the finisher/stacker

■ 47 cm (18.5 in.) above the printer with the finisher/stacker

Total Height Requirements

■ Printer: 74 cm (29 in.)

■ Add 29 cm (11.5 in.) for the 1000-sheet feeder

Other Clearances

■ 20 cm (8 in.) behind the printer

■ 46 cm (18 in.) in front of the printer

■ 64 cm (25.2 in.) on the left side of the printer

■ 64 cm (25.2 in.) on the left side of the printer with 2000-sheet feeder

■ 20 cm (8 in.) on the right side of the printer

■ 100 cm (39.4 in.) on the right side of the printer with the finisher/stacker

Dell 7330 Mono Laser Printer

Operational Safety

Operational Guidelines

■ Do not block or cover the slots and openings on the printer. The printer may overheat

without adequate ventilation.

■ For optimum performance, use the printer at elevations below 3,000 m (11,480 ft.).

■ Do not place the printer near a heat source.

■ Do not place the printer in direct sunlight.

■ Do not place the printer in line with the cold air flow from an air conditioning system.

■ Place the printer on a level, solid non-vibrating surface with adequate strength for the

weight of the printer. It should be within 2° of horizontal with all four feet in solid contact with the surface. The base printer weight without any packaging materials is approximately 41 kg (90 lb.).

Printing Safety Guidelines

■ Wait 10 to 15 seconds between turning the printer off and on.

■ Keep hands, hair, neckties, etc. away from the exit and feed rollers.

■ Do not remove the paper source tray that you selected in either the printer driver or control

panel.

■ Do not open the doors.

■ Do not move the printer.

Warning: Avoid touching areas inside the printer that are labeled with a warning symbol.

These areas may be very hot and can cause personal injury.

Printer Supplies

■ Use the supplies specifically designed for your printer. The use of unsuitable materials

may cause poor performance and a possible safety hazard.

■ Follow all warnings and instructions marked on, or supplied with, the printer, options and

supplies.

Fonts

This topic includes:

■ Types of Fonts on page 2-10

■ Downloading Fonts on page 2-10

■ Printing Font Samples on page 2-11

Types of Fonts

Your printer uses the following types of fonts:

■ Resident fonts

■ Fonts downloaded into printer RAM, hard drive, or flash memory

■ Fonts downloaded with your print job from the application

Adobe Type Manager (ATM) software enables your computer to display these fonts on your computer screen as they will appear in your prints.

If you do not have ATM on your computer:

1. Install it from the Software and Documentation CD.

2. Install the printer’s screen fonts for your computer from the ATM folder.

Downloading Fonts

To supplement the resident fonts (which are always available for printing), you can download fonts from your computer to the printer’s memory or to the printer’s hard drive or flash memory. Downloading fonts to a printer can improve printing performance and reduce network traffic.

You can list, print, and download PostScript, PCL, and TrueType fonts to your printer using the Dell Printer Font Management Utility. This utility helps you manage fonts, macros, and forms on a printer’s hard drive.

Use the Software and Documentation CD to download and install the Font Management Utility.

Note: If you turn off the printer, the fonts you download to memory are deleted. You must

download them again when you turn on the printer. Fonts downloaded to the hard drive are not deleted when you turn off the printer.
