Before using your printer, read these safety instructions to make sure you use the
printer safely and effectively:
■
Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the printer.
■
Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer’s label.
■
Use only the power cord that comes with this product. Use of another cord
may result in fire or electric shock.
■
This product’s power cord is for use with this product only. Use with other
equipment may result in fire or electric shock.
■
Connect all equipment to properly grounded power outlets. Avoid using
outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly
switch on and off.
■
Place the printer near a wall outlet where it can be easily unplugged.
■
Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.
■
If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure the total ampere
rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the
cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices
plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.
■
Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
■
Keep your printer and computer system away from potential sources of
electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or cordless telephone base
units.

Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes in temperature or humidity,
shocks or vibrations, or dust.
■
Leave enough room around the printer for sufficient ventilation.
■
Don’t place the printer near a radiator or heating vent or in direct sunlight or
strong light.
■
Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the printer base
in all directions. The printer will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an
angle. Leave enough space in front of the printer for paper to be fully ejected.
■
Turn off and unplug the printer before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth
only. Do not spill liquid on the printer.
Caution:
Always turn the printer off by pressing the power button for two seconds.
