WHERE TO PUT THE PRINTER

The printer’s location should be carefully chosen
because environmental conditions greatly affect its
performance.

 Warning

Confirm that the wall outlet is near the machine
and freely accessible, so that in event of an
emergency, it can be unplugged easily.

Only connect the machine to the power source
described on this sheet.

Avoid multi-wiring.

Do not damage, break or make any modifica-
tions to the power cord. Do not place heavy ob-
jects on it, pull it hard or bend it more than nec-
essary. These actions could cause an electric
shock or fire.

 Caution

Keep the machine away from humidity and dust.
A fire or an electric shock might occur.

Place the machine on a strong and level sur-
face. Otherwise, the machine might fall and
cause personal injury.

If you use the machine in a confined space, con-
firm that there is a continuous flow of air.

INSTALLING  THE  TONER
CARTRIDGE

 Warning

Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner
dust might ignite when exposed to an open flame.

Disposal can take place at our authorized dealer
or at appropriate collection sites.

If you dispose of the used toner cartridge your-
self, dispose of them according to your local regu-
lations.

 Caution

Do not eat or swallow toner.

Keep toner (used or unused)  and the toner car-
tridge out of reach of children.

Our products are engineered to meet the highest
standards of quality and functionality. When pur-
chasing expendable supplies, we recommend
using only those provided by an authorized dealer.

Important

Do not expose the toner cartridge to a light for a
long time. If you do, the toner cartridge will be
damaged and the print quality might be reduced.

While holding the front cover with both hands
on the left and right sides, press the release
button to open it.

ZKET155E

Important

Be sure to remove the tape completely before installing
the toner cartridge. Otherwise, the printer might be
damaged.

If you pull out the strips when the toner cartridge
is slant or standing on its side, the cartridge might
cause trouble with the printer.

Be sure to pull the tape horizontally. Pulling it
upward or downward may cause the toner to scatter.

Be careful not to make your cloths dirty with toner.

After pulling the tape out of the cartridge, toner scatters
easily. Do not shake the cartridge.
