Verify that the line voltage marked
on the back of the printer matches
the local mains supply before

•
Check that the voltage listed on
the rating plate, located on the
back of the printer, matches the
local mains supply voltage before
applying power.
Some Printer parts have been removed for shipping.
Reassemble its detached parts, as follows (see

The print head is held to one side by a plastic
