With the power cable connected to the printer’s power source
Connect the power adapter’s 5.2mm plug into the power input jack. Set the cord so that it cannot go
near the buildplate when the plate goes down, and so that it comes out from between the printer’s
door and frame but does not prevent the door closing.
Connect the splitter end of the cord between the printer’s power jack and its power adapter’s plug.
When the power adpater is plugged into the splitter, the heater will be turned on; heating is OFF.
