clips, pins or other foreign objects to fall into the printer these could cause a short circuit leading to an electric
shock or fire hazard..
(5) Never touch the plugs on either end of the power cable with wet hands, this can cause electric shock. When
servicing the printer remove the power plug from the wall socket.
(6) Use caution when inserting or removing the power connector. The power connector must be inserted com-
pletely otherwise a poor contact could cause overheating possibly leading to a fire. When removing the power
connector grip it firmly and pull.
(7) Take care of the power cable. Do not allow it to become twisted, bent sharply round corners or other wise
damaged. Do not place objects on top of the power cable. If the power cable is damaged it could overheat and
cause a fire or exposed cables could cause an electric shock. Replace a damaged power cable immediately,
do not reuse or repair the damaged cable. Some chemicals can attack the coating on the power cable,
weakening the cover or exposing cables causing fire and shock risks.
(8) Ensure that the power sockets and plugs are not cracked or broken in any way. Any such defects should be
repaired immediately. Take care not to cut or damage the power cable or plugs when moving the machine.
(9) Use caution during thunder or lightening storms. Samsung recommend that this machine be disconnected from
the power source when such weather conditions are expected. Do not touch the machine or the power cord if it
is still connected to the wall socket in these weather conditions.
(10) Avoid damp or dusty areas, install the printer in a clean well ventilated location. Do not position the machine
near a humidifier. Damp and dust build up inside the machine can lead to overheating and cause a fire.
(11) Do not position the printer in direct sunlight. This will cause the temperature inside the printer to rise possibly
leading to the printer failing to work properly and in extreme conditions could lead to a fire.
(12) Do not insert any metal objects into the machine through the ventilator fan or other part of the casing, it could
make contact with a high voltage conductor inside the machine and cause an electric shock.

Precautions

1.3 ESD Precautions
Certain semiconductor devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. Such components are commonly called
“Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices”, or ESDs. Examples of typical ESDs are: integrated circuits, some field
effect transistors, and semiconductor “chip” components.
The techniques outlined below should be followed to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by
static electricity.
Caution >>Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
1. Immediately before handling a semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any
electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, employ a commercially available wrist strap device, which should be removed for your personal safety reasons prior to applying power to the
unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESDs, place the assembly on a conductive surface, such as
aluminum or copper foil, or conductive foam, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup in the vicinity of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded tip soldering iron to solder or desolder ESDs.
4. Use only an “anti-static” solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static” can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.
5. Do not use Freon-propelled chemicals. When sprayed, these can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.
6. Do not remove a replacement ESD from its protective packaging until immediately before installing it. Most
replacement ESDs are packaged with all leads shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil, or a comparable conductive material.
7. Immediately before removing the protective shorting material from the leads of a replacement ESD, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
8. Maintain continuous electrical contact between the ESD and the assembly into which it will be installed, until completely plugged or soldered into the circuit.
9. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ESDs. Normal motions, such as the brushing
together of clothing fabric and lifting one’s foot from a carpeted floor, can generate static electricity sufficient to
damage an ESD.
1. Exercise caution when replacing a super capacitor or Lithium battery. There could be a danger of explosion and
subsequent operator injury and/or equipment damage if incorrectly installed.
2. Be sure to replace the battery with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
3. Super capacitor or Lithium batteries contain toxic substances and should not be opened, crushed, or burned for
disposal.
4. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacture’s instructions.
