SETTING UP THE HARDWARE

This section shows the steps to set up the hardware which is explained in

the Quick Install Guide. Make sure you read Quick Install Guide and

complete following steps.
1. Select a stable location.

Select a level, stable place with adequate space for air circulation. Allow

extra space to open covers and trays.

The area should be well-ventilated and away from direct sunlight or

sources of heat, cold, and humidity. Do not set the machine close to the

edge of your desk or table.

Printing is suitable for altitudes under 1,000 m (3,281 ft). Refer to the

altitude setting to optimize your printing. See "Altitude adjustment" on

page 28 for more information.
Place the machine on a flat, stable surface so that there is no incline

greater than 2 mm (0.08 inch). Otherwise, printing quality may be

affected.
