Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.
Make sure that the printer is well away from heaters and other sources of extreme heat.
Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
Make sure that the printer is connected to a reliable power outlet. It should not be on the same electric circuit as copiers, refrigerators, or other appliances that cause power spikes.
Make sure that the room where you are using the printer is not too humid.
