Important
When removing the power plug after turning off the machine, be sure to
check that all the lamps on the Operation Panel are not lit. If the power
plug is removed from the wall outlet with the lamps on the Operation
Panel lit or blinking, the machine cannot protect its Print Head and may
be unable to print.
