Important Information
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy 
and if not installed and used properly, that is, in accordance 
with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference in 
radio and television reception. It has been type tested and 
found to comply with the limits for class B computing devices in 
accordance with the specification in subpart J of part 15 of FCC 
rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection 
against such interference in a residential installation. However, 
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a partial 
installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio 
or television reception, which can be determined by turning the 
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct 
the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient the receiving antenna,

Relocate the peripheral away from the receiver,

Move the peripheral away from the receiver

Plug the peripheral into a different outlet, so that the peri-
pheral and receiver are on different branch circuits

If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experi-
enced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. 
The user may find the following booklet, prepared by the Fe-
deral Communications Commission, helpful: “How to Identify 
and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems”.

fice, Washington DC 20402 Stock No. 004.000.00345.4.
WARNING: To comply with FCC regulations on electromagne-
tic interference for a class B computing device, the printer ca-
ble must be shielded. To assure compliance with FCC 
regulations for a computing device, use a shielded interface 
cable with a metal shell connector. The use of cables not pro-
perly shielded may result in violating FCC regulations.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the class B limits for ra-
dio noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the ra-
dio interference regulations of the Canadian department of 
communications.
This unit complies with DOC standard C108.8-M 1983
