Power Problems
Before treating the problem as a machine breakdown, refer to the following table and check

instructed in the user guide. A high voltage component can cause electric shock.
• Do not try to alter the machine configuration, or modify any parts. An unauthorized
modification can cause smoke or fire.

the network environment you are using, or a printer restriction has been exceeded.
