b)

 

3-Prong to 2-Prong

 

Adapters 

 

- Do not attach a 3-prong adapter to a 2-prong or non-grounded electrical outlet just for 
the purpose of supplying power to the printer – call an 
electrician immediately and correct the power source problem. 
Bypassing the ground connection enables a free floating 
ground to exist at the printer which is not only dangerous to 
the operator but will likely result in imaging output problems. 
 

- Some customers install line adapters 
which have a ground lead, then attach a wire between the 
ground lead and the receptacle box housing (i.e. screw) or other 
fixed point.  
 

CAUTION:

 Installation of these types of adapters provides an 

extremely unreliable ground, is dangerous to the operator and 
equipment, and should never be considered a solution.  

 
 

c) Non-Grounded Conditioners/Regulators

  

- Never connect a line conditioner or power 
regulator to an ungrounded power source – this can 
be dangerous to the equipment and operator. See b. 
above.
