• Be certain that your pow er source matches the r ating listed
on the back of the printer. If you are not sure, check with
your dealer or with your local power company.
• Your printer has an earthed, 3-prong plug as a safety feature,
and it will only fit into an earthed outlet. If you can not plug
it in, chances are you have an older, non-earthed outlet;
contact an electrician to have the outlet replaced. Do not
use an adapter to defeat the earthing.
• To avoid damaging the power cord, do not put anything on
it or place it where it will be walked on. If the cord becomes
damaged or frayed, replace it immediately.
• If you are using an extension cord or power strip with the
printer, make sure that the total of the amperes required by
all the equipment on the extension is less than the extension’ s
rating. The total ratings of all equipment plugged into the
outlet should not exceed 15 amperes.
• This printer must be installed near to a power outlet switch
which shall remain easily accessible.
• Do not poke anything into the ventilation slots on the pr inter;
you could get a shock or cause a fire.
• Aside from the routine maintenance described in this
handbook, do not try to service the printer yourself; opening
the cover may expose you to shoc ks or other hazards.
