1.4 Choosing a Place for the Printer
When selecting a place to set up your printer, choose a convenient location that provides the
following:
1. A flat, stable surface
2. Adequate room around the printer to allow easy operation and maintenance. Make sure it’s
close enough to the computer for the printer cable to reach, and be sure you can easily
unplug the power cord.
3. Moderate environmental conditions. Select a cool, dry area and protect your printer from
direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust.
4. Appropriate power source. Make sure you use a grounded outlet; do not use an adapter plug.
Avoid electrical outlets controlled by timers or wall switches; an interruption in power can wipe
out the information in your computer or printer memory.
5. Use a stand that supports at least 9 kg (19 lb).
6. Never use a stand that tilts the printer. Always keep it level.
7. Provide enough clearance below the stand and between the legs of the stand so your
continuous paper flows smoothly.
8. Place cables so they do not interfere with paper feeding; secure them to a leg of the stand if
possible.
