Turning On/Off the Power

This section explains how to turn on/off the printer.

Turning On the Power

1.

Make sure the power cord is firmly plugged into the wall outlet.

2.

Push the main power switch.

DPP036

The power indicator turns on.

• After you switch the main power on, a screen may appear to indicate that the printer is initializing.

Do not switch the power off during this process. Initialization takes about three minutes.

Turning Off the Power

• When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord.

Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire
or electric shock.

• Do not press and hold the main power switch when turning off the printer. Doing so shuts down the

printer forcefully and may damage the hard disk causing a malfunction of the printer.

• Before unplugging the power cord plug, turn off the power switch and make sure the power switch

indicator turns off. Not doing so may result in damage to the hard disk or memory, leading to a
malfunction.

• Do not turn off the power while the printer is in operation.
