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 page 29 for more

information.

Place the machine on a flat, stable surface so that there is no incline

greater than 5 mm (0.02 inch). Otherwise, printing quality may be

affected.

2. Unpack the machine and check all the enclosed items.
3. Remove the tape holding the machine tightly.

4. Install both the print cartridge and imaging unit.

network printer. You can set up the basic network settings with the

machine's touch screen.
