OPERATION
4.1 POWER SUPPLY PRECAUTIONS
Turn the plotter power switch OFF before doing any of the following:
1. Unplugging the plotter.
2. Cleaning the printhead.
3. Opening the plotter for maintenance or service.
4. Placing hands or tools near any internal parts.
WARNING: There are voltage hazards inherent in the printhead power supply and AC input
wiring. Take reasonable precautions to avoid electrical shock.
CAUTION: Take care not to discharge static into the plotter. This may cause
damage to the integrated circuits or to other electronic components. Use an
approved method of static dissipation such as touching a grounded source, to
prevent component damage.
