Place to Install

The printer's location should be carefully chosen because environmental conditions greatly affect its performance.

WARNING


  • Do not use any frequencies other than those that match the specifications shown. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING


  • Do not use any power sources other than those that match the specifications shown in “Safety Information”. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING


  • Do not use multi-socket adaptors. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING


  • Do not use extension cords. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING


  • Do not use power cords that are damaged, broken, or modified. Also, do not use power cords that have been trapped under heavy objects, pulled hard, or bent severely. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING


  • Touching the prongs of the power cable's plug with anything metallic constitutes a fire and electric shock hazard.

WARNING


  • The supplied power cord is for use with this machine only. Do not use it with other appliances. Doing so could result in fire, electric shock, or injury.

WARNING


  • It is dangerous to handle the power cord plug with wet hands. Doing so could result in electric shock.

WARNING


  • If the power cord is damaged and its inner wires are exposed or broken, contact your service representative for a replacement. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING


  • Be sure to locate the machine as close as possible to a wall outlet. This will allow easy disconnection of the power cord in the event of an emergency.

WARNING


  • Do not use flammable sprays or solvents in the vicinity of this machine. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

CAUTION


  • Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an electric shock might occur.

CAUTION


  • Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over, an injury might occur.

CAUTION


  • Make sure the room where you are using the machine is well ventilated and spacious. Good ventilation is especially important when the machine is used heavily.

CAUTION


  • Be sure to disconnect the plug from the wall outlet and clean the prongs and the area around the prongs at least once a year. Allowing dust to build up on the plug constitutes a fire hazard.

CAUTION


  • Machine sound levels exceeding [Sound Power Level (Black and White)] > 63 dB (A) are not suitable for desk work environments, so place the machine in another room.

CAUTION


  • When new, electrical devices containing volatile materials will normally release emissions into the air of their vicinity. For this reason, for the first few days after installation of a new device, strong ventilation inside the room where it is placed is necessary.
