4-3. Switch Cover Installation

It is not necessary to install the switch cover. Only install it if it is necessary for you. By install-

ing the switch cover, the following become possible.

•  Preventing the power switch from being operated by mistake.

•  Ensuring that other people can not easily operate the power switch.

Install the switch cover as shown in the diagram below.

The power switch can be turned ON ( 

|

 ) and OFF (O) by inserting a narrow instrument (ball 

pen etc.) in the holes in the switch cover.

CAUTION

We recommend that you unplug the printer from the power outlet whenever you do not plan to 

use it for long periods. Because of this, you should locate the printer so that the power outlet it is 

plugged into is nearby and easy to access.
