2.
Connect one end of the power cord to the printer.
3.
Connect the other end of the power cord to a standard
electrical outlet (grounded AC outlet).
Note:
You may want to use a surge protected outlet. Surge
protection helps prevent power fluctuations from
damaging your printer. Surge protectors are available
through most office supply and computer stores.
Starting the Printer
As you look at the front of the printer, the power switch is on the
lower right side.
1.
Locate the power switch.
2.
Press the | on the power switch to turn on the printer. The
green Ready light will begin flashing and ACCEL-A-WRITER
appears in the display window.
After the printer is powered on, it goes through a warm-up period of
approximately 90 seconds. During this time the printer runs
initializing programs and self-tests. After the warm-up period, the
Ready light stops flashing and remains on. The start-up page
automatically prints. See the next section, “Printing the Start-up
Page,” for details on this page.
If your printer does not power on when you turn on the switch, check
the following:
•
Is the AC power cord attached properly?
•
Is the power switch in the ON position?
