Printer Advisories and Warnings

Read and follow these instructions to avoid damaging the printer or your property. Make sure you keep this manual for future reference.

Advisories and Warnings for Setting Up the Printer

❏ Do not block or cover the vents and openings in the printer.
❏ Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer's label.
❏ Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and o.
❏ Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
❏ Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as
