Setting Up
Where to Put the Printer
The printer's location should be carefully chosen because environmental condi-
tions greatly affect its performance.
❖ Space Required for Installation
Leave enough space around the printer. This space is necessary to operate
the printer. The recommended (or minimum) space requirements are as fol-
lows:
A: 10 cm (4 inches) or more
• Confirm the wall outlet is near the machine and freely accessible, so
that in the event of emergency, it can be unplugged easily.
• Only connect the machine to the power source described in the man-
ual.
• Avoid multi-wiring.
• Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on it, pull it hard or bend it more than nec-
essary. These actions could cause an electric shock or fire.
• Do not handle the plug with wet hands. Doing so might cause an electrical
shock.
• Keep the machine in an area that is within optimum environmental condi-
tions. Operating the machine in an environment that is outside the recom-
mended ranges of humidity and temperature can cause an electrical fire
hazard. Keep the area around the socket free of dust. Accumulated dust
can become an electrical fire hazard.
• Place the machine on a strong and level surface. Otherwise, it might fall and
injure someone.
• If you use the machine in a confined space, ensure there is continuous air
circulation.
