2. Connect the connector of the detachable cable to the printer power socket.
3. Connect the power plug to the wall socket.
4. If media and ribbon are installed, toggle the power switch to ON position to turn on the

printer and the power LED will light up.

Important:
1. Hold the power plug to unplug the power.
2. Pulling the power cord by force to unplug the power may break the power cord
