INSTALLATION
All instructions assume you are looking at the front of the printer during assembly.
1. Use the packaging material to lay the printer on its side so that you can see the
holes on the bottom. Position the vertical portion of the frame opposite the holes in
the bottom, align the holes on the bottom of the vertical frame with those on the
horizontal frame, then use the included 2.5mm hex wrench and 4x M5x20 screws to
secure the vertical frame to the horizontal frame (2 screws on each side).
