•The power cord is damaged or frayed.
•Liquid is spilled into the printer.
•The printer is exposed to water.
Safety
•The printer emits smoke, or the surface is unusually hot.

the outlet.
WARNING: To avoid risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use extension cords, power
strips, or power plugs for more than 90 days. When a permanent outlet receptacle
cannot be installed, use only one factory-assembled extension cord of the appropriate
gauge for each printer or multifunction printer. Always adhere to national and local
building, fire, and electrical codes regarding length of cord, conductor size, grounding,
and protection.
•Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not have
a ground connection terminal.
•Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is providing the correct voltage and power.
Review the electrical specification of the printer with an electrician if necessary.
•Do not place the printer in an area where people can step on the power cord.
